Hello:
For some reason (probably a loose cable) all of my mdraid type 1 (mirror) arrays became degraded. After replugging the cables I have resynchronized most of the arrays but not all of them. The arrays that have been resynched work nicely but those devices which I haven't resynched act strange: at every boot either one or the other disk of the array is assembled to the array. That is, one time /dev/md8 has /dev/sda8 assembled and /dev/sdb8 kicked off and the other time /dev/md8 has /dev/sdb8 assembled and /dev/sda8 kicked off. By the time I discovered this I've had different data on the two disks of the array.
My questions:
1. If an array becomes degraded and only one device is assembled to it, the other one should be kicked off consequently after this, until the array has been resynched or the missing deviced is readded manually. Why then one or the other device is assembled to the array at each boot?
If only one piece is visible, how can mdraid know it is stale?
2. How can I force mdraid to assemble only the same one of the devices to the degraded array? (For example /dev/sda8 to /dev/md8 and not /dev/sdb8.)
