raid1 state always "active"

raid1 state always "active"

[Dâniel Fraga]

	I have this raid1 array, but the State field is always
"active". Shouldn't it be "clean"? Is there something wrong with this
output? Thanks.

	Sorry for my stupid question. I think now I understand what the
difference is. Clean is when there's no write to the disk and active is
when there's sync.
