mdassemble - assemble MD devices aka Linux Software RAID
mdassemble
mdassemble is a tiny program that can be used to assemble MD devices
inside an initial ramdisk (initrd) or initramfs; it is meant to
replace the in-kernel automatic RAID detection and activation. It
can be built statically and linked against lightweight libc
alternatives, like dietlibc, klibc or uClibc.
Invoking mdassemble has the same effect as invoking mdadm --assemble
--scan.
Invoking mdassemble a second time will make all defined arrays
readwrite, this is useful if using the start_ro module parameter.
There are no options to mdassemble.
/etc/mdadm.conf
The config file lists which devices may be scanned to see if they
contain MD super block, and gives identifying information (e.g. UUID)
about known MD arrays. See mdadm.conf(5) for more details.
mdassemble supports all configuration parameters defined in
mdadm.conf with the exception of auto= which is supported only if
mdadm was built with the -DMDASSEMBLE_AUTO define.
mdadm(8), mdadm.conf(5), md(4), diet(1).
