Location of the superblock is now 4Kb from the start - of the device, instead of at the end of the device for 0.90. - The change from 0.9 to 1.x lifted many restrictions of the old - metadata format, and change in location (from end to 4k after - start for 1.2) reduced chances to confuse a raid array with - filesystem inside it. It is now less easy to mount a component - device as separate filesystem by incident, thus destroying the - array. - - Also, chunk size by default is 512K (was 64K) and bitmap chunk size - is 64Mb. - - -- Michael Tokarev Sat, 10 Sep 2011 13:35:12 +0400 - -mdadm (2.6.7-2) unstable; urgency=low - - /dev/disk symlinks: - mdadm now creates symlinks in /dev/disk/by-id, using the template - md-uuid-* for the array UUIDs and md-name-* for any names assigned to - arrays (version-1 superblocks only).

This means that you need to ensure - that you have a valid configuration file. If none is present during package - configuration, mdadm *will* try to generate one, but it will only contain - information about arrays that were running at the time of package - configuration. Arrays not listed in the configuration file will *not* be - started automatically after boot (with the exception of the root partition). - - If you want to recreate your configuration file, either figure out what it - should contain from the mdadm.conf(5) manpage, or simply assemble and run - all the arrays the way you like it, then run - /usr/share/mdadm/mkconf force-generate /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf - - -- martin f. krafft Sat, 03 Jun 2006 17:45:47 +0200 - -mdadm (2.4.1-1) unstable; urgency=low - - As of version 2.3, mdadm uses /etc/mdadm.conf as its main configuration - file, and falls back to /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf if the former is not found. - Since Debian uses /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf as the configuration file path, this - order was reverted: Debian's mdadm reads /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf as its main - file and falls back to /etc/mdadm.conf if the former is not found. - - An incompatible change in the reshaping of RAID 5 arrays was made in this - upstream release.
