thanks for asking but yes I did. at the bottom of /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf I have all members listed by UUID:
#taken from #mdadm --examine --scan
ARRAY /dev/md2 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=c0612d2a:3ce4c7c9:3d186b3c:53958f34
ARRAY /dev/md6 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=7ce4a26e:1ffb7c27:5611f15b:a92b01a9
ARRAY /dev/md1 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=6977edd0:1bc5a44e:5611f15b:a92b01a9
ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=41ea4263:2d9ec7d3:21f2bbc1:ca3ddc1f
ARRAY /dev/md9 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=383abd60:380d197a:5611f15b:a92b01a9
any ideas?
BTW.
all those raid partitions are also set to Linux raid autodetect as it should be. From fdisk I have output that
I have noticed has sda8 partition end and sda9 partition start to be same cylinder number 59883 for some reason. Could this be a problem?
