Greetings

Running a Raid 10 array with 4 - 3 TB drives. Have a UPS but this area
gets significant lightning and also brownout (rural power) events.

Found the array was read only this morning. Thought that rebooting the
system might correct things - - - it did not as the array did not
load.

commands used followed by system response

mdadm --detail /dev/md0
    mdadm:  md device /dev/md0 does not appear to be active.

cat /proc/mdstat
    md0  : inactive sdc1[5](S) sdf1[8](S) sde1[7](S) sdb1[4](S)

mdadm -E /dev/sdb1
                        sdc1
                        sde1
                        sdf1

everything is the same except for 2 items

sde and sdf have uptime listed from July 04 05:50:46
                           events 64841
                           array state of AAAA

sdb and sdc have uptime listed from July 05 01:57:38
                            events 64844
                            array state of AAA.



Do I just re-create the array?

No, not if you value your data. Only re-create the array if you are told to by someone (knowledgeable) on the list.

In your case, I think you should stop the array.
mdadm --stop /dev/md0
Make sure there is nothing listed in /proc/mdstat
Then try to assemble the array, but force the events to match:
mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 --force /dev/sd[bcef]1

If that doesn't work, then include the output from dmesg as well as /proc/mdstat and any commandline output generated.

You might also want to examine why two drives dropped, referring to logs or similar might assist.

Adam
