Won't do any damage, might work. Stop and reassemble the array ... mdadm --stop /dev/md1 mdadm --assemble --scan What you describe sounds like something tried to start the array while it was half-assembled. There's a bunch of interactions between udev, systemd, and mdadm, which seem to get badly off-kilter if something hiccups anywhere. My suggestion won't do any harm - it might fix the problem, and it'll give the experts the chance to chime in.
