Package: mdadm
Version: 2.5.4-1
Severity: normal
Upon boot after a crash due to failing video hardware, one disk in a
raid 1 array was marked failed. The command
mdadm --re-add /dev/md1 /dev/sdb1
failed with the message /dev/md1 is not an md device. The real problem
was that I attempted the operation as a normal user, thus did not have
sufficient permission to do so.
The failure to autostart the array (recovery) after the crash is not
mdadm's fault; I have RAID 1 built in to the kernel, so it starts
without mdadm.
