Is it not possible to permanently remove a journal and return to resync
mode?
Here's what I tried:
# mdadm --readonly /dev/md124
# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid10] [raid0] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4]
md124 : active (read-only) raid5 md123[7] md127p4[15](J) sdp1[13]
sdl1[10] sdg1[12] sdf1[11] sdo1[14] sdj1[8] sdq1[9] md122[6]
62509129728 blocks super 1.2 level 5, 512k chunk, algorithm 2
[9/9] [UUUUUUUUU]
# mdadm /dev/md124 --fail /dev/md127p4
mdadm: set /dev/md127p4 faulty in /dev/md124
# mdadm /dev/md124 --remove /dev/md127p4
mdadm: hot removed /dev/md127p4 from /dev/md124
# cat /sys/block/md124/md/consistency_policy
journal
# echo resync > /sys/block/md124/md/consistency_policy
# cat /sys/block/md124/md/consistency_policy
resync
# mdadm --stop /dev/md124
mdadm: stopped /dev/md124
# mdadm --assemble /dev/md124 /dev/md12[23] /dev/sd[goqpjfl]1
mdadm: Not safe to assemble with missing or stale journal device,
consider --force.

Hi Larkin,
We didn't ship this patch. Instead, we decide to use sysfs entry
/sys/block/mdXXX/md/consistency_policy
You can find the patch at:
