Is /etc/mdadm.conf up to date? Run "mdadm --detail --scan" to get the information you need, and either replace the lines in mdadm.conf or add the one that's missing. You might need to rebuild the initrd afterward (dracut --force). I'm unclear on why any of that would be necessary, though. I don't usually add pre-existing arrays to running systems, so I'm a bit out of my experience here.
Thanks for the replies both

In the end what fixed it was copying over the lvm.conf from the old system backup, and rebuilding the initrd
I didn't think to diff the two before hand so not sure what it was that changed, but sorted now anyway!
thanks again
