Public bug reported: mdadm package appears to not be complete.
trying to enable mdmonitor to launch automatically for systemd, but it fails with this warning: # systemctl enable mdmonitor The unit files have no installation config (WantedBy, RequiredBy, Also, Alias settings in the [Install] section, and DefaultInstance for template units). This means they are not meant to be enabled using systemctl. Possible reasons for having this kind of units are: 1) A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's .wants/ or .requires/ directory. 2) A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has a requirement dependency on it. 3) A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer, D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...). 4) In case of template units, the unit is meant to be enabled with some instance name specified. I am able to start mdmonitor. # systemctl status mdmonitor ● mdmonitor.service - MD array monitor Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/mdmonitor.service; static; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Thu 2018-01-04 12:47:01 EST; 30min ago Main PID: 3052 (mdadm) Tasks: 1 (limit: 4915) CGroup: /system.slice/mdmonitor.service └─3052 /sbin/mdadm --monitor --scan Jan 04 12:47:01 music systemd[1]: Started MD array monitor.
