Package: mdadm
Version: 4.2+20230508-5devuan1
Severity: minor
Since some days I get the following message every day:
mdadm: DeviceDisappeared event detected on md device /dev/md/md3
mdadm: DeviceDisappeared event detected on md device /dev/md/md2
mdadm: DeviceDisappeared event detected on md device /dev/md/md1
mdadm: DeviceDisappeared event detected on md device /dev/md/md0
mdadm: NewArray event detected on md device /dev/md0
mdadm: NewArray event detected on md device /dev/md1
mdadm: NewArray event detected on md device /dev/md3
mdadm: NewArray event detected on md device /dev/md2
This come from cron and the command `mdadm --monitor --scan --oneshot`.
(Which produce the same message.)
I never had any md device under /dev/md/*. They was always under
/dev/mdX.
And my /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf has the following entries:
ARRAY /dev/md0 metadata=0.90 UUID=xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx
ARRAY /dev/md1 metadata=1.0 name=ikki:1
UUID=xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx
ARRAY /dev/md2 metadata=1.0 name=ikki:2
UUID=xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx
ARRAY /dev/md3 metadata=1.0 name=ikki:3
UUID=xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx
/proc/mdstat has the following:
~> cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md2 : active raid1 sda6[3] sdb6[2]
419430260 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU]
bitmap: 0/2 pages [0KB], 131072KB chunk
md3 : active raid1 sda7[0] sdb7[2]
419430208 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU]
bitmap: 1/4 pages [4KB], 65536KB chunk
md1 : active raid1 sda5[0] sdb5[2]
1073741632 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU]
bitmap: 0/8 pages [0KB], 65536KB chunk
md0 : active raid1 sdb1[1] sda1[0]
1998976 blocks [2/2] [UU]
unused devices: <none>
So it is strange where this "DeviceDisappeared" is coming from. Nowhere
in my system is a mentioning /dev/md/mdX.

Well, first, I don't have systemd and will never ever have!
But it doesn't matter if Debian removed that cron job. It is mdadm
itself that prints the error:
~> mdadm --monitor --scan --oneshot
mdadm: DeviceDisappeared event detected on md device /dev/md/md3
mdadm: DeviceDisappeared event detected on md device /dev/md/md2
mdadm: DeviceDisappeared event detected on md device /dev/md/md1
mdadm: DeviceDisappeared event detected on md device /dev/md/md0
mdadm: NewArray event detected on md device /dev/md0
mdadm: NewArray event detected on md device /dev/md3
mdadm: NewArray event detected on md device /dev/md2
mdadm: RebuildStarted event detected on md device /dev/md2
mdadm: NewArray event detected on md device /dev/md1
So mdadm is broken in some sort.
Regards
Klaus
