I have been trying to delete an md. I have recently updated to version 1.12 of mdadm. I used to be able to do mdadm /dev/md12 --stop. It does not seem to be stopping, but I do not get any error and the $?/return code is 0.
The --verbose option for mdadm does nothing for --stop. How do I determine why this is not successful?
Thanks...Art
According to the man page; If a device is given before any options, or if the first option is --add, --fail, or --remove, then the MANAGE mode is assume. Anything other than these will cause the Misc mode to be assumed. So try mdadm --stop /dev/md12 with the device last.
