Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Brian Lane 2020-10-15 15:36:03 UTC

The mdmonitor service is disabled on the installer iso, but if there is a RAID attached systemd tries to start it anyway. This results in an error in the logs and on the console.

The system continues to boot, and installation works fine, this is purely cosmetic.

It does not appear with a normally partitioned drive, only with RAID.

We do not want to actually run mdmonitor during installation because it requires an email address to function properly. So it either needs to be removed or masked from being started under any conditions.
