Can someone explain why the following different outputs from the two mdadm --scan commands and which one is the appropriate entry in mdadm.conf?
It is a display bug. it was fixed in commit 6e48d593c163e8107f06d13bc6092466a5d58c94 which is rolled into mdadm 3.1.2. I'd upgrade to that from 3.1.1 anyway, due to the massive number of fixes that went into 3.1.2.
mdadm --version mdadm - v3.1.1 - 19th November 2009 # mdadm --examine --scan /dev/sd* ARRAY /dev/md/0 metadata=1.1 UUID=b411b304:6385f171:26f07cb1:3c2b03de name=hifi:0 # mdadm --detail --scan ARRAY /dev/md0 metadata=1.01 name=hifi:0 UUID=b411b304:6385f171:26f07cb1:3c2b03de metadata attribute being the primary difference.
The correct entry for mdadm.conf would be "1.1", but i believe "1.01" should be understood as well.
