It's the way IMSM works. You have md127 which is a "container", 
essentially spanning all the discs concerned. That container holds one 
or more RAID sets. You have md126 aka Volume0 as a RAID-1 set that fills 
the container, but you could have more than one RAID set, e.g. you could 
have a RAID-1 as md126 and a RAID-10 as md125.

Cheers,

John.
