[Bug 823499] [NEW] mdadm failed to autocreate md /dev entries

[m0sia]

Public bug reported:

I've just upgraded from 10.11 to 11.04

I have the following mdadm.conf(worked like a charm for 10.11):

DEVICE partitions

CREATE owner=root group=disk mode=0660 auto=yes

HOMEHOST <system>

MAILADDR root

ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid1 num-devices=2
UUID=78bab575:75f15162:d7535677:b830ce1f

After upgrade i have the following mdstat:

$ cat /proc/mdstat 
Personalities : [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid1] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [raid10] 
md0 : inactive md127p1[0](S)
      488383936 blocks
       
md127 : active (auto-read-only) raid1 sdc[1] sdb[0]
      488386496 blocks [2/2] [UU]
      	resync=PENDING
      
unused devices: <none>

Two get my raid1 up and running i have to do the following:

 $sudo mdadm --stop /dev/md0
 $sudo mdadm --stop /dev/md127
 $sudo mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1
 $sudo mount /dev/md0 /mnt/raid 


cat /proc/mdstat 
Personalities : [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid1] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [raid10] 
md0 : active raid1 sdb1[0] sdc1[1]
      488383936 blocks [2/2] [UU]
      
unused devices: <none>

$ sudo mdadm --detail --scan --verbose
ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid1 num-devices=2 metadata=0.90 UUID=78bab575:75f15162:d7535677:b830ce1f
   devices=/dev/sdb1,/dev/sdc1

How can I get mdadm autodetection work as expected?

Best regards,
Dmitry
