Name : mdadm
Product : Fedora 17
Version : 3.2.6
Release : 8.fc17
URL : http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
Summary : The mdadm program controls Linux md devices (software RAID arrays)
Description :
The mdadm program is used to create, manage, and monitor Linux MD (software
RAID) devices. As such, it provides similar functionality to the raidtools
package. However, mdadm is a single program, and it can perform
almost all functions without a configuration file, though a configuration
file can be used to help with some common tasks.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This is an update to the mdadm package.
This update fixes two bugs related to Intel BIOS RAID support.
- Disallow creating a second IMSM RAID array size 0
- Disallow creating IMSM RAIDs that spans multiple controllers
to avoid data corruption
- Remove the now obsolete mdmonitor-takeover.service which is no longer needed and which causes reboot problems as of mdadm-3.2.6.
All users of mdadm are advised to update
