Subject: Shrinking raid array

I'm working on shrinking a raid array and need some clarification on
where the metadata goes and how large it is.  I have used -G with -Z
and -z to reduce the used size of each disk, but the man page says you
need some extra space at the end of the disk for the metadata ( format
1.0 ), but doesn't specify exactly how much.  I need to know what the
exact size of the reduced partition should be.
