I ended up using a similar plan, I installed and used mdadm to do the same thing. It worked great. I need to know in the future if my RAID devices are out of sync, and I don't think mdadm is up to it, what do you suggest? It does seem all I have to do is: # nohup mdadm --monitor --mail=sysadmin --delay=300 /dev/md0 & But I was looking for something more finished. However, this should work also.
