   4 I am pleased to announce the availability of
   5    mdadm version 1.1.0
   6 It is available at
   7    http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/
   8 and
   9    http://www.{countrycode}.kernel.org/pub/utils/raid/mdadm/

  11 as a source tar-ball and (at the first site) as an SRPM, and as an RPM for i386.
  12
  13 mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring
  14 device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also
  15 known as Software RAID arrays.
  16
  17 Release 1.1.0 contains a number of spell corrections, and bug fixes.
  18 It has improved support for MULTIPATH arrays.
  19 It has some new features including:
  20   --daemonise           for use with --monitor
  21   --config=partitions   to find devices by examining /proc/partitions
  22   --update=super-minor  to change the recorded minor-number for an array
  23
  24 Much of the improvements are due to user feed-back.  Thanks are due to all who
  25 gave suggestions and reported problems.
  26
  27 I expect the next major release to be 2.0.0 which will include support for
  28 a new super-block format soon to be supported by 2.5 series kernels.
