| 15 | mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring | |
| 16 | device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also | |
| 17 | known as Software RAID arrays. | |
| 18 | ||
| 19 | Release 2.6.1 adds a few minor bug fixes to 2.6 including improved | |
| 20 | support for growing a RAID6 array. | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | Changelog Entries: | |
| 23 | - --monitor was producing some meaningless warnings due to a bug. | |
| 24 | - Fix some compiler warnings. | |
| 25 | - Fully support --grow for raid6. If a reshape crashed during the | |
| 26 | critical period, mdadm wouldn't restore the Q information | |
| 27 | properly. | |
| 28 | - Update documentation for --grow. | |
| 29 | ||
| 30 | Development of mdadm is sponsored by | |
| 31 | SUSE Labs, Novell Inc. | |
