Subject: RAID5 in sync does not populate slots sequentially, shows array as (somewhat) faulty

Message-ID: <47CBD62E.7040608@rabbit.us> (raw)
Hello,
Noticing the problems Tor Vestbø is having, I remembered that I have an array
in a similar state, which I never figured out. The array has been working
flawlessly for 3 months, the monthly 'check' runs come back with everything
being clean. However this is how the array looks through mdadm's eyes:
