From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Description of problem: Red Hat 8.0 and 9 now ship with mdadm. Service mdmonitor is activated by default but will never be run as there is no MAILADDR specified in /etc/mdadm.conf. I propose to include MAILADDR root into /etc/mdadm.conf so that at least root gets an information when there is a problem with the RAID devices. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create an MD device 2. service mdmonitor start 3. look for an mdadm process Additional info:
Still no comment from Red Hat on this issue for Severn Beta1
Hmm, how about suggesting this to Neil as upstream maintainer?
Done. I've added you to CC in the mail I just sent to Neil. Nonetheless until it is "fixed" upstream it should be very easy to create a simple patch.
This was done some time ago. Closing.
