Is it safe to shutdown while mdadm --grow is in progress.

I googled this topic and got differing answers. Some old ones report horror stories and others suggest rebuild continues after reboot normally. My array is rebuilding and it will take about 6 days to complete. I am expecting bad weather in a couple of days and would like to proactively shutdown the machine and reboot. Is this safe?

If the information is already available in a clear manner, please let me know.

uname: Linux xxx 3.13.0-37-generic #64-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 22 21:28:38 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
mdadm - v3.2.5 - 18th May 2012

Thanks for your help

Ramesh
