activate Raid5


I have been having problem with my failed disk RAID server.
The regular mdadm --assemble cmd does not work.
After trial&error, I am able to add all disks to the RAID using mdadm.
Howver, it is still inactive. How do I activate this RAID md0?

The result from cat /proc/mdstat

Code:
md0 : inactive sdf1[4] sde1[3] sdd1[2] sdc1[1] sdb1[0]

You probably just need to mount it. You should have an entry in /etc/fstab; if so you can try

mount -a

which will mount any/all filesystems that are available & not currently mounted.
