Hi, while most of the Linux software-RAID related tutorials suggest to have the mdadm.conf file up to date, then is it actually needed or used any more? I mean all the data needed by kernel for creating the RAID arrays should be stored in the superblocks, shouldn't it? Or in which situation the mdadm.conf is needed? regards, Martin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
