Most importantly, the "mdmonitor" service should have emailed the root user to notify you that your arrays are broken. You should find out why you aren't getting that email.
actually, root got it, but I'm rather lax about checking root's email. I've changed /etc/mdadm.conf to send it to user fredex in the future.
Might be better to add a mail alias to make all of root's email go somewhere useful. Mdmonitor may not be the only thing with important warnings.
