I sometimes clone working machines by separating RAID1 mirrors and
letting each re-sync with a new partner in different machines. What
will happen if a mismatched pair of these drives ever end up together
in the same machine? If there is any chance that they would
automatically be paired, is there a way to change the uuid when
moving to a new machine so that wouldn't happen?
I don't think mismatched uuid's would automatically pair unless you
forced it.
But won't all sets rebuilt from the common parent have matching uuids?
I think there is some other metadata with the uuid's that should stop auto
pairing. Now if you use --add with the second drive, it will probably make it
sync.
I suppose some experimentation is necessary.

You hope everybody uses it, and
