1 | Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 3.2.5 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux |
2 | ||
3 | I am somewhat disappointed to have to announce the availability of | |
4 | mdadm version 3.2.5 | |
5 | ||
6 | It is available at the usual places, now including github: | |
7 | countrycode=xx. | |
8 | http://www.${countrycode}kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/ | |
9 | and via git at | |
10 | git://github.com/neilbrown/mdadm | |

14 | This release primarily fixes a serious regression in 3.2.4. | |
15 | This regression does *not* cause any risk to data. It simply | |
16 | means that adding a device with "--add" would sometime fail | |
17 | when it should not. | |
18 | ||
19 | The fix also includes a couple of minor fixes such as making | |
20 | the "--layout=preserve" option to "--grow" work again. | |
21 | ||
22 | A reminder that the default location for runtime files is now | |
23 | "/run/mdadm". If you compile this for a distro that does not | |
24 | have "/run", you will need to compile with an alternate setting for | |
25 | MAP_DIR. e.g. | |
26 | make MAP_DIR=/var/run/mdadm | |
27 | or | |
28 | make MAP_DIR=/dev/.mdadm | |
