I think you are waiting to do something that might not be inplace/available at all. That thing is the capability to reset reshape flag when the array metadata is not consistent. You had an old array in two of these drives and it seems mdadm confused when it observes the drives metadata are not consistent. Hope someone chip in some tricks to do so without a need to develop such a functionality in mdadm. -- 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
