* Aligned the spelling of “RAID” to use captial letters in all places. * Aligned the spelling of the RAID level names (LINEAR, RAID1, …) to use capital letters in all places, except for the string “faulty” in places where not the RAID level was meant.

.SH NAME
|
|
mdassemble \- assemble MD devices
|
|
.I aka
|
|
Linux Software RAID
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.BI mdassemble
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B mdassemble
|
|
is a tiny program that can be used to assemble MD devices inside an
|
|
initial ramdisk (initrd) or initramfs; it is meant to replace the in-kernel
|
|
automatic RAID detection and activation.
|
|
It can be built statically and linked against lightweight libc alternatives, like
|
|
.B dietlibc,
|
|
.B klibc
|
|
or
|
|
.B uClibc.
|
|
|
|
.SH USAGE
|
|
Invoking
|
|
.B mdassemble
|
|
has the same effect as invoking
|
|
.B mdadm \-\-assemble \-\-scan.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Invoking
|
|
.B mdassemble
|
|
a second time will make all defined arrays readwrite, this is useful if
|
|
using the
|
|
.B start_ro
|
|
module parameter.
|
|
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
There are no options to
|
|
.B mdassemble.
|
|
|
|
.SH FILES
|
|
|
|
.SS /etc/mdadm.conf
|
|
|
|
The config file lists which devices may be scanned to see if
|
|
they contain MD super block, and gives identifying information
|
|
(e.g. UUID) about known MD arrays. See
|
|
.BR mdadm.conf (5)
|
|
for more details.
|
|
|
|
.B mdassemble
|
|
supports all configuration parameters defined in
|
|
.B mdadm.conf
|
|
with the exception of
|
|
.B auto=
|
|
which is supported only if mdadm was built with the
|
|
.B \-DMDASSEMBLE_AUTO
|
|
define.
