* mdadm.8: Man page updatesNeilBrown2009-06-021-191/+331
| | | | General review and update of mdadm.8

* Allow homehost to be largely ignored when assembling arrays.NeilBrown2009-05-111-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If mdadm.conf contains HOMEHOST <ignore> or commandline contains --homehost=<ignore> then the check that array metadata mentions the given homehost is replace by a check that the name recorded in the metadata is not already used by some other array mentioned in mdadm.conf. This allows more arrays to use their native name rather than having an _NN suffix added. This should only be used during boot time if all arrays required for normal boot are listed in mdadm.conf. If auto-assembly is used to find all array during boot, then the HOMEHOST feature should be used to ensure there is no room for confusion in choosing array names, and so it should not be set to <ignore>.

* Incremental: honor --no-degraded to delay assemblyDan Williams2009-02-241-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | Currently Incremental_container is being called after adding each disk. In the imsm case where spares are not tracked in the raid_disks field we can use --no-degraded to block premature assembly. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
* introduce --detail-platform to display platform raid capabilitiesDan Williams2008-12-081-3/+32
| | | | | | | Metadata formats like imsm work in concert with platform firmware and hardware, so provide a way for mdadm to display this info to the user. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

| | | | | | | Its cumbersome to determine which devices to wait for in a system shutdown script, so hook up --scan. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

| * Allow WRITEMOSTLY to be cleared on --readd using --readwrite.NeilBrown2008-10-251-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously it was possible to set the WRITEMOSTLY flag when adding a device to an array, but not to clear the flag when re-adding. This is now possible with --readwrite. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

| * Remove .UR .UE macros from man page because the don't do what we want.NeilBrown2008-10-171-7/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | .UR URL text .UE is meant to create a hyperlink from the 'text' to the 'URL'. But I wanted just to have the URL, so UR isn't really the right tool - the URL gets displayed twice. So just display the URL in bold and assume man2html etc can recognise it and do the right thing.

* | Extend --wait-clean to checkpoint resyncDan Williams2008-10-151-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Root file systems backed by external metadata arrays need to be explicitly checkpointed near the time the rootfs is marked readonly as userspace will not have an opportunity to react to the final shutdown of the array.

* | 'mdadm --wait-clean' wait for array to be marked cleanDan Williams2008-09-151-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For use in distro shutdown scripts with a RAID root file system. Returns immediately if the array is 'readonly', or not an externally managed array. It is up to the distro's scripts to make sure no new writes hit the device after this returns 'true'. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

| * Italic/bold fixes in man pages.Neil Brown2008-06-261-30/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Two places that should have been .B or .I were .M, which of course is an error. So fix these and that the opportunity to be more consistent with highlighting of "mdadm". Make it always italic except when used as a literal example, then bold.

| | | | | | | | udev likes to get information about a device as key=value pairs so it can create disk/by-id links etc. So add --export flag which causes the output of --detail to easily parsable. From: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@novell.com>
* Hyphens and Other Manpage Typography, 4/4: literal ASCII hyphens.Peter Samuelson2007-05-081-260/+260
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org> nroff formats "-" as the very short hyphen used for hyphenated terms and for splitting a word across two lines. When you want a literal ASCII "-", like for typing on a command line, you're supposed to use "\-" instead. Yeah, it sounds pedantic, but it actually makes a difference. With modern Unicode-capable terminals, "man" actually renders these with different characters, so if you try to search for "--create" in your favorite pager, you won't find it unless the nroff source says "\-\-create". This discrepancy doesn't generally show up with non-Unicode terminals. Signed-Off-By: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org>

| | | | | | | | | From: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org> Option names and example command lines seem to be boldface most of the time, fix up the few that weren't. Signed-Off-By: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org>

| | | | | | | | | From: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org> \(em renders as "--" in ASCII, and a nice em dash (i.e., a dash the width of the letter "m") in more capable formats like PostScript. Signed-Off-By: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org>
