Hi. thanks for the detailed report. I can see what the problem is. It will take a little while to figure out what the "correct" fix it, but a quick fix to get you out of trouble would be to remove the lines: if (info->array.utime > __le64_to_cpu(bsb.mtime) + 3600 || info->array.utime < __le64_to_cpu(bsb.mtime)) continue; /* time stamp is too bad */ from Grow.c in mdadm (around line 925). This change is definitely safe for your case, and should get the array assembled and the reshape restarted. Please let me know how it goes.
