Stopping the raidmonitor service on startup
« on: September 26, 2007, 04:52:56 AM »
Hi,

I have a SME 7.2 system with 2 drives, no raid needed or wanted.  One for / and the other for /home/e-simith/files/users

When ever I restart the system I get an email from mdadm to admin_raidreport@"my domain" saying.
-----

This is an automatically generated mail message from mdadm running on "server fqdn".

A DegradedArray event has been detected on md device /dev/md2.

-----

There is a bug 2174 which says something about this, namely I have to disable the raidmonitor service.  There is some contention in the bug whether this is the correct thing to do.

Unfortunately I do not know how to do this when the machine is booting to stop the error email.  Can some one help me to resolve this issue?

Thanks,  Brad
