After you do various changes to your mdadm.conf, don't forget to update your
initrd. AFAIK mdadm.conf is copied into the compressed initrd image to be u=
sed
early at boot, and this copy has to be kept in sync with your version in /e=
tc.

Typically you can update initrd for all installed kernels by running someth=
ing
like:

  update-initramfs -k all -u
