How do I serialise mdadm --add/--re-add calls other than by writing some shell to poll /proc/mdstat ? Is there a way to make mdadm synchronous i.e., waiting until the operation completes or fails instead of starting it in the background and returning. -- André Majorel <URL:http://www.teaser.fr/~amajorel/> Do not use this account for regular correspondence.
