Actually it also needs to be reproduced as well. Wolfgang, the
arrays were created/running under what version of mdadm and kernel
the last time you did a check and there were no problems?

No. The arrays were created before the update, and were running fine
by then.  The most recent of them was created under Fedora 17 - the
other two are much older; it would take a bit of effort to find out
when I created these, and with which exact versions.

The last time bbefore the update to Fedora 18, all systems were
running Fedora 17 (with almost all updates installed), and there were
no problems.

Yes but what kernel version and mdadm? Right now 3.7.3-104 is stable kernel for Fedora 17, and 3.2.6-8 for mdadm for Fedora 17. So saying Fedora 17 tells not very much.

And now you're on Fedora 18, but the problem appeared with what
version of mdadm and kernel?

The problem showed up during the first check after updating to Fedora
18.  This is with:

	kernel-3.7.4-204.fc18.x86_64
	mdadm-3.2.6-12.fc18.x86_64

OK and the versions before that, that you know the problem was not occurring?
