+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #696110 +++ Created attachment 491696 [details] boot.log Description of problem: Starting RPC idmapd: [ OK ] /etc/rc3.d/S25netfs: line 47: mdadm: command not found Setting up Logical Volume Management: 2 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg_dhcp70188" now active This is when booting a KVM domU of the latest Workstation variant (snap #3) which has 2 iSCSI targets acting as PVs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-9.03.22-1.el6.x86_64 anaconda version 13.21.111 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure tgtd to export 2 iSCSI targets 2. Start KVM domU install with a local disk and attach to the 2 targets 3. Select to use all space on all disks (will create LVM) 4. Select minimal package set Actual results: mdadm not found because it is not installed. Expected results: If mdadm is necessary I suppose it should have been installed automatically by anaconda.

We should create /etc/mdadm.conf on the basis of RAID devices being created. If there are none, the file should not be created.
Filing here for anaconda. Expected result: No /etc/mdadm.conf if no RAID devices are created during install.

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release.
Easier steps to reproduce: 1) Perform install on local disk using autopart and minimal package set 2) No RAID arrays will be created but anaconda will create non-empty /etc/mdadm.conf Tested with anaconda-13.21.114-1 from 0420.n.0 nightly - mdadm.conf was not created.
