+

+ mdadm version 1.4.0

+ http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/
+and
+ http://www.{countrycode}.kernel.org/pub/utils/raid/mdadm/
+
+as a source tar-ball and (at the first site) as an SRPM, and as an RPM for i386.
+
+mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring
+device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also
+known as Software RAID arrays.
+
+Release 1.4.0 adds:
+ SparesMissing event in --monitor mode if a number of spares is declared
+ in mdadm.conf, but that number of spares isn't found.
+ --update=summaries option for --assemble mode to update some summary information
+ in the superblock
+ --test option for --detail to get a useful exit status.
