From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040809 Description of problem: If I attempt to bring up a raid device that's not listed in /etc/mdadm.conf, I have to specify -m (or --super-minor). That's fine. However, it's not fine that it complains about super-minor entries for unrelated devices that are listed in /etc/mdadm.conf. # cat /etc/mdadm.conf DEVICE partitions ARRAY /dev/md8 super-minor=8 ARRAY /dev/md9 super-minor=9 ARRAY /dev/md10 super-minor=10 ARRAY /dev/md6 super-minor=6 ARRAY /dev/md5 super-minor=5 # mdadm -A /dev/md0 -m 0 mdadm: only specify super-minor once, super-minor=8 ignored. mdadm: only specify super-minor once, super-minor=9 ignored. mdadm: only specify super-minor once, super-minor=10 ignored. mdadm: only specify super-minor once, super-minor=6 ignored. mdadm: only specify super-minor once, super-minor=5 ignored. mdadm: no devices found for /dev/md0 It doesn't matter whether it finds devices or not; the warnings are printed before it searches for them. I don't have any inactive raid devices atm to show the output, but I've done that before. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mdadm-1.5.0-11
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
