At the moment mdadm with imsm metadata is totally broken on xenial (and I suspect on all ubuntu distros with systemd). Due to incorrect ordering of things at shutdown machines with arrays assembled at boot with mdadm and imsm metadata may hang and the array is resynced everytime even if the bios sh

What is the latest here? I've spent an hour scouring forums and other such places in an attempt to find concise instructions on how to migrate an existing system running "FakeRAID" (raid1) from dmraid to mdadm. If no such documentation exists, I'd be more than happy to create it, however I will ne

I have a 12.04 system with fakeraid for the root partition across /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. I want to convert it from using dmraid to mdadm (so I can monitor it with /proc/mdstat for instance) mdadm is 3.2.5, and it says in the manpage it can understand ddf and imsm metadata, and this indeed seems to

@Dmitrijs: I totally agree with your comment #8 It seems that something is moving in debian about fakeraid & mdadm: they have working patches, see their bug 699434, http://bugs.debian.org/699434, and metabug 699430 http://bugs.debian.org/699430. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #699434

Well, I think it would be nice to replace dmraid sometime in the future with mdadm, however, first mdadm would need to support most devices from dmraid like e.g. also the Promise Fasttrak Metadata (after all those are used for AMD RAID controller) -- You received this bug notification because you

Just for reference, #957494 is an incomplete fix for the readonly issue mentioned above. mdmon is still missing in the initrd which leads to read-only arrays. Inclusion of mdmon into the image fixes this. However, system shutdown is still broken in this case. -- You received this bug notification

It is critical to replace dmraid with mdadm as dmraid is unable to deal with large disk sizes. For a 3TB imsm raid1 dual-boot ('fakeraid') in my case the disks were shown as ~746GB sized and dmraid -an would not release them. So the only way was to boot the live cd with nodmraid and manually instal

Ok. Both ubiquity and the debian-installer use a piece of software for partitioning collectively known as partman. Partman has many "plugins" for setting up different file systems and things. Partman-md is a single package which handles mdadm based RAID. Partman-md upstream is at: Vcs-Browser:

Well, alternate cd has mdadm, but it isn't used for fakeraid. If you setup a fakeraid volume from the bios, and then start a new install, you are forced to use dmraid. If you don't setup a raid volume with the bios, you are offered the chance of setup a linux software raid with mdadm, but this i
