Subject: raiddetect support for Linux software RAID?
Date: Sat, 01 May 2004 15:54:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4093C82C.6030306@backtobasicsmgmt.com> (raw)

I'm wondering if anyone has planned on putting Linux software RAID (md) 
detection into the raiddetect tool. Currently I use mdadm to scan all 
devices to look for my RAID(s), but it's got some problems:

- it's not hotplug driven, it has to be run over all devices
- it's noisy because it wants to scan everything in /dev
- i can't see what's there without trying to activate it

raiddetect would be a nice addition, I would be able to tell that a 
complete array has appeared and just use mdadm to start it up. Thoughts?
