Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 3.2.5 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
I am somewhat disappointed to have to announce the availability of
mdadm version 3.2.5
It is available at the usual places, now including github:
countrycode=xx.
http://www.${countrycode}kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
and via git at
git://github.com/neilbrown/mdadm
git://neil.brown.name/mdadm
http://neil.brown.name/git/mdadm
This release primarily fixes a serious regression in 3.2.4.
This regression does *not* cause any risk to data. It simply
means that adding a device with "--add" would sometime fail
when it should not.
The fix also includes a couple of minor fixes such as making
the "--layout=preserve" option to "--grow" work again.
A reminder that the default location for runtime files is now
"/run/mdadm". If you compile this for a distro that does not
have "/run", you will need to compile with an alternate setting for
MAP_DIR. e.g.
make MAP_DIR=/var/run/mdadm
or
make MAP_DIR=/dev/.mdadm
