Hello, I'm using mdadm in script which setup a system automtically. When creating a RAID array, I'd like mdadm to not prompt the user. Currently I get: # mdadm --create array1 --force --metadata=1.0 --level=raid1 --raid-devices=3 /dev/vdb1 /dev/vdc1 /dev/vdd1 mdadm: /dev/vdb1 appears to be part of a raid array: level=raid0 devices=0 ctime=Thu Jan 1 01:00:00 1970 mdadm: metadata will over-write last partition on /dev/vdb1. Continue creating array? I thought that using --force would do the trick, but it didn't. I'm using mdadm - v3.3 - 3rd September 2013 Is there any other way to achieve that ?
