I've also encountered this with a RAID-1 array on 10.04. The "degraded" status can usually be solved by simply re-attaching a drive, but since this isn't done automatically, it'll only be done when I notice there's a problem. And since there's no notification of a problem, I essentially have no RAID.
I've tried creating a cron job to poll the status of mdadm and send me an email if there's a problem, and although it works when I run it as my user, some strange permissions issue prevents it from sending the email when run by cron. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-disk-utility in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444935 Title: gdu-notification-daemon does not warn of degraded RAID -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
