From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.4) Gecko/20010913 Description of problem: There are no man-pages for raidhotadd, raidhotremove nor raidhotgenerateerror, and the --help output is confusing. It's not clear that the `*' is supposed to be a list of disk device names, not necessarily md ones. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.raidhotadd --help 2.man raidhotadd 3.man -k raidhotadd 4.pull hair out Actual Results: usage: raidhotadd [--all] [--configfile] [--help] [--version] [-achv] </dev/md?>* No manual entry for raidhotadd raidhotadd: nothing appropriate Expected Results: usage: raidhotadd [--all] [--configfile filename] [--help] [[-version] [-achv] </dev/md?> </dev/[mhs]d*> [...] Spiffy man-page explaining how/why/when to use these commands. Additional info:
I definitely second this bug report. I got bit this morning by the confusing output from raidhot* --help, and since there's no other documentation for the commands....
Still true with null....
still true with RHL 8.0
still true with 8.0.94
and 9...
And now raidtools are gone (won't be in FC3).
