To be precise, it's not anaconda but "loader", the C program that starts anaconda and cleans up after it. It looks exactly for "mdmon". See https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/anaconda.git/tree/loader/shutdown.c?h=rhel6-branch#n59 > Does "started by systemd" mean that "systemctl start mdmon@mdXXX.service" was > used to start it? In that case can't we put something in > systemd/mdmon@.service to make the right thing happen? Sorry for having explained unclearly. This is *not* a systemd environment. There is no regular "init" process running AFAICT, "loader" takes that role as far as necessary in the installation environment. > > I'm going to hold off on this one for the moment. If this isn't applied, in the RHEL/CentOS 6 installation environment, "loader" will kill mdmon, and a subsequent "mdadm --wait-clean" will hang forever.
