Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 3.2.2 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
I am pleased to announce the availability of
mdadm version 3.2.2
It is available at the usual places:
countrycode=xx.
http://www.${countrycode}kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
and via git at
git://neil.brown.name/mdadm
http://neil.brown.name/git/mdadm
This release is largely a stablising release for the 3.2 series.
Many of the changes just fix bugs introduces in 3.2 or 3.2.1.
There are some new features. They are:
- reshaping IMSM (Intel metadata) arrays is no longer 'experimental',
it should work properly and be largely compatible with IMSM drivers in
other platforms.
- --assume-clean can be used with --grow --size to avoid resyncing the
new part of the array. This is only support with very new kernels.
- RAID0 arrays can have chunksize which is not a power of 2. This has been
supported in the kernel for a while but is only now supprted by
mdadm.
- A new tool 'raid6check' is available which can check a RAID6 array,
or part of it, and report which device is most inconsistent with the
others if any stripe is inconsistent. This is still under development
and does not have a man page yet. If anyone tries it out and has any
questions or experience to report, they would be most welcome on
linux-raid@vger.kernel.org.
Future releases in the 3.2 series will only be made if bugfixes are needed.
The next release to add features is expected to be 3.3.
