I'm talking about something non-vital device. I'll try to reproduce it again and had over all logs and files. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

You /etc/mdadm.conf contains: DEVICE /dev/sd*[0-9] Yet you array is comprised for "/dev/sdb" "/dev/sdc" "/dev/sdd". None of those device names match the "DEVICE" pattern, so they are ignored. Just remove the "DEVICE" line from mdadm.conf and everything should work. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
