Raid5 trouble after Upgrade. How to change this magic number in superblock

[Christian Feddern <rangerone@web.de>]

Hello there,

I got a problem with my raid5.
After I updated my linux distribution the following happend:
While booting the autoraid process yells at me:

md: invalid raid superblock magic on md0
md: md0 has invalid sb, not importing
md: no nested devices found
md: autorun done
raid5: switching cache buffer size, 4096 --> 1024


cat /proc/mdstat looks completly ok

lsraid tells me that md0 doesnt have a valid superblock

mdadm --examine tells me that the magic number it reads from superblock 
/dev/md0 is not what was expected.

Strangely: The expected magic number is on the superblock of all four 
raid partitions!!!.

They all look like this:

/dev/hde1:
           Magic : a92b4efc
         Version : 00.90.00
            UUID : 05527cce:757e81d8:7476d03f:5bfaaa2b
   Creation Time : Fri Jun 28 15:32:11 2002
      Raid Level : raid5
     Device Size : 97685632 (93.16 GiB 100.03 GB)
    Raid Devices : 3
   Total Devices : 4
Preferred Minor : 0

  Failed Devices : 0

          Layout : left-symmetric
      Chunk Size : 32K

       Number   Major   Minor   RaidDevice State
this     0      33        1        0      active sync   /dev/hde1
    0     0      33        1        0      active sync   /dev/hde1
    1     1      33       65        1      active sync   /dev/hdf1
    2     2      34        1        2      active sync   /dev/hdg1
    3     3      34       65        3        /dev/hdh1

All deviced show this info. But the md0 superblock seems to have a wrong 
magic number.

I can mount /dev/md0 just fine and also read or modify data. This error 
message is just making me nervous.

Can i change the superblock to the valid values again somehow? If yes 
how :)?

Any1 got an idea ?

Thx

Christian
