Michael, This is something new to me. I never saw any message in any of the logs. I am not a new linux user and neither am I unfamiliar with looking after my system, yet I have never seen any messages related to these mismatches. The first time I find out about this is when I run a raid 'check', and even this scan does not produce any messages about the mismatch which is simply logged into /sys/devices/virtual/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt Nov 7 03:05:02 e7 kernel: md: data-check of RAID array md0 Nov 7 03:05:02 e7 kernel: md: minimum _guaranteed_ speed: 1000 KB/sec/disk. Nov 7 03:05:02 e7 kernel: md: using maximum available idle IO bandwidth (but not more than 200000 KB/sec) for data-check. Nov 7 03:05:02 e7 kernel: md: using 128k window, over a total of 976759808 blocks. Nov 7 07:06:22 e7 kernel: md: md0: data-check done. All intervening messages are unrelated (named verbiage).
