The name of the array probably got weird because your hostname doesn't |
| 6 |
match the homehost of the array. The array has the host name stored in |
| 7 |
its metadata, so if you're booting in an environment that doesn't have |
| 8 |
the same hostname (such as a live CD) then it'll use different (large) |
| 9 |
numbering to avoid a conflict with "local" arrays. It may also cause |
| 10 |
some other differences. The manpage of mdadm has good information. |

I think you can also set it to ignore the hostname entirely in |
| 13 |
mdadm.conf, but I've not personally ever tried that. |
