Hi Neil,
This update brings:
1/ Bug fixes for imsm metadata, including a serial number handling
problem that was preventing assembly
2/ Support for checkpointing resync and rebuild
3/ The '--switch-root' option to mdmon to aid starting and stopping
mdmon in the initramfs environment
4/ Random fixes and cleanups
Testing continues, but this is the version I am running on my ich6r
based MythTV box (raid1).
Question:
Should "mdadm -Is" be updated to support assembling the external
metadata arrays defined in mdadm.conf? Currently I have modified an
initramfs to perform:
mdadm -As
mdadm -I /dev/imsm
...which works but I would like the name of the container to be
implicit. The alternative:
for i in /dev/sd[abcde]
do mdadm -I $i
done
...results in the array(s) being started too early.
In any event, please have a look.
Thanks,
Dan
