Well, --manage -m did not work, mdadm says: mdadm: option m not valid in manage mode mdadm - v1.12.0 - 14 June 2005 That is the version I run as this is maintained by my OS vendor. And I did test mdadm --manage -m before asking my first question. Now mdadm --monitor --scan did not complain about my MAILADDR line in /etc/mdadm.conf . But I would like to test it, and mdadm --manage -t is not allowed. How do I trigger a message?
