@Paul, Ah, I see! |
| 12 |
|

The component drives in a RAID-1 array have the _same_ UUID, so I would |
| 14 |
assume that a line in /etc/mdadm.conf such as: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
ARRAY /dev/md0 UUID=d3176595:06cb3677:46406ca7:d12d146f |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
would identify _both_ component drives. This is what the output of |
| 19 |
mdadm --examine --brief --scan --config=partitions would imply. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
I'll try this. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
I'm not fond of UUID's. They're hard to read and impossible to copy by |
| 24 |
hand without making mistakes! |
