Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 2.4.1 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
I am pleased to announce the availability of
mdadm version 2.4.1
It is available at the usual places:
http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/
and
http://www.{countrycode}.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring
device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also
known as Software RAID arrays.
2.4.1 primarily fixes an alignment problem in the version-1
superblock. This is an incompatible change relating to
raid5-reshape. Read the change log below.
Changelog Entries:
- Honour --write-mostly when adding to an array without persistent
superblocks.
- Fix alignment problem in version-1 superblocks.
NOTE: This is an incompatable change affecting raid5 reshape.
If you want to reshape a raid5 using version-1 superblocks,
use 2.6.17-rc2 or later, and mdadm-2.4.1 or later.
Development of mdadm is sponsored by
SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
