Minor bug in mdadm. The device is clearly faulty: Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 8 65 0 faulty spare rebuilding /dev/sde1 so mdadm should never suggest that it is also spare and rebuilding. I'll fix that. What is a little odd is that 'RaidDevice' is still '0'. Normally when a device fails the RaidDevice gets set to '-1'. This doesn't happen immediately though - md waits until all pending requests have completed and then disassociated with the device and sets raid_disk to -1. So you seem to have caught it before the device was fully quiesced .... or some bug has slipped in and devices that get errors don't fully quiesce any more.... NeilBrown
