i cant figure out what is wrong with the following command. when i
remove the "parity=right-asymmetric" command option it does not fail.
but i need to be able to create the raid device with different parity
algorithms. it also fails on --level=5 and using the short forms of the
flags.

mdadm --create /dev/md2 --chunk=64 --level=6 --raid-devices=4 
--parity=right-asymmetric --spare-devices=2 /dev/vg0/turnerlv1
/dev/vg0/turnerlv2 /dev/vg0/turnerlv3 /dev/vg0/turnerlv4
/dev/vg0/turnerlv5 /dev/vg0/turnerlv6

mdadm: layout may only be sent once.  Second value was right-asymmetric
