Yes. That's typical for the root device because root is never unmounted
prior to shutdown. The messages are probably more worrying than they
need to be. The system should have successfully switched the array to
read only mode at the first attempt to stop the array. Neil, any chance
on getting the messages for the / device to be less worrisome?

Now that grub's installed, you won't have to do anything manual again.
The only time you might have to repeat that grub install procedure is if
you loose a drive and need to add a new one back in, then the new one
will need it.
