Sometimes you have to leave your old paths and habits and think innovative :-)) Assuming, that the UUID of the md-devices remain constant, and all the md devices find their physical devices by conventional device-path (true in my case) all I had to change, was the /etc/fstab: #/dev/md1 /boot ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 2 #/dev/md1 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/md-uuid-081a1bd5:d2cfebd3:3d5369e9:2c7af0a6 /boot ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 2 /dev/disk/by-id/md-uuid-6c203ec1:9360f8ba:da20cf36:64ef942c swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/root_dg/root_dg_vol00 / ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 1 The workaround works. The XEN-kernel (Dom0) is up and running !! :-)) The original md0-device (still present in non-xen kernel) however is still missing and a new md-device md127 is appeard: Personalities : [raid1] [raid0] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [linear] md127 : active raid1 sda1[0] sdb1[1] 200704 blocks [2/2] [UU] md2 : active raid1 sda3[0] sdb3[1] 139243264 blocks [2/2] [UU] md1 : active (auto-read-only) raid1 sda2[0] sdb2[1] 4192896 blocks [2/2] [UU] unused devices: <none> The /etc/mdadm.conf is unchanged: DEVICE partitions ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid1 UUID=081a1bd5:d2cfebd3:3d5369e9:2c7af0a6 ARRAY /dev/md1 level=raid1 UUID=6c203ec1:9360f8ba:da20cf36:64ef942c ARRAY /dev/md2 level=raid1 UUID=96498c7c:8cac6295:1f678b78:d723672a I was hesitating, using the UUID's of the physical devices within the md-config because of one big disadvantage: In case of a disk replacement of the raid-systems, it would be more cumbersome to fix the raid-devices. The patch for setup-md.sh did not solve my original problem, the missing md0-device. From my perspective it neither harms nor helps applying the setup-md.sh patch (Attachment 262365 Details for Bug 461673). Let's see, what the official solution will look like.
