The prior shutdown could have been unclean for the array. The shutdown

I have a second (8 drive) raid6 array on this host that has a 2GB
journal and it won't assemble either.

Kernel: 4.13.10-100.fc25.x86_64

What can I do? Do I need more RAM?

You're in the recovery shell ... does/can that use all available ram?
(Like DOS needed special drivers to use ram above 1MB). So I doubt you
need more ram.

Get a rescue disk of some sort, boot into that, so you've got a full
working linux off DVD/CD, and see if you can assemble the arrays from there.
