-- Environment
Ubuntu 12.04 Server Edition 64bit (installed from the 20120323 daily ISO)
Installed into a guest running on VirtualBox 4.1.10, hosted on Windows 7.
Disk configuration:
1 SATA controller
1 20GB HDD (used at / mount point)
5x 512MB HDD (used to simulate RAID5 array)
--
-- What action I took
On an untouched installation, I install mdadm, and attempt to create a RAID5
array with this command:
sudo mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=5 --raid-devices=5 /dev/sdb
/dev/sdc /dev/sdd /dev/sde /dev/sdf
After confirming that I wanted to create the array, mdadm reported success. I
initialized a file system on it, mounted it, and created a simple text file
containing 'Hello World' on it. Then, I reboot.
--
-- What I expected to happen
mdadm would reassemble the array at boot time as /dev/md0.
--
-- What happened instead
mdadm reassemled the array at boot time as /dev/md127.
--
It took a great deal if hunting around to discover that the array had
actually been assembled. I forget what command I issued that finally
tipped me off to the existence of the assembled array, but running 'sudo
mdadm --detail /dev/md127' confirmed that it was the array I had just
built. I mounted the array and viewed the contents of the text file to
confirm.
This did not occur when I built my array on my test and production
servers running Ubuntu 10.04 Server 64bit, so I am calling this new and
unexpected behavior, and filing it as a bug.
