This is mdadm.conf (uuids are on same line as ARRAY): DEVICE partitions ARRAY /dev/md1 level=raid1 num-devices=2 uuid=300c1309:53d26470:64ac883f:2e3de671 ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid1 num-devices=2 uuid=89649359:d89365a6:0192407d:e0e399a3 ARRAY /dev/md2 level=raid6 num-devices=8 UUID=68c2ea69:a30c3cb0:9af9f0b8:1300276b I saw an error fly by as the server was booting saying "/dev/md2 not found".
