I made a script for myself, that collects the information by
inspecting /sys instead of doing mdadm -E.  The script see all mdraid
devices and all devices that belong to a mdraid.  I would like to know
if the script works or not.  It works for me.



#!/bin/bash

# $1 - procfile
# $2 - File to log
function cat-file () {
    echo $1 >> $2
    if [ -e $1 ] ; then
        ${CAT} $1 >> $2
    else
        echo "$1 don't exist" >> $2
    fi
    echo >> $2
}


FILEMD=md-list

echo "Get slot positions of the devices in mdraid" >> ${FILEMD}
for file in /sys/block/md* ; do
    echo $file    >> ${FILEMD}
    for dev in $file/md/rd* ; do
        echo $dev    >> ${FILEMD}
        ls -alF $dev >> ${FILEMD}
    done
    echo >> ${FILEMD}
done

echo "Get more info about devices in mdraid" >> ${FILEMD}
# get info about all devices that are in a mdraid.
# similar to mdadm --examine ?
for file in /sys/block/md* ; do
    echo $file    >> ${FILEMD}
    for dev in $file/md/rd* ; do
        echo $dev    >> ${FILEMD}
        ls -alF $dev >> ${FILEMD}
        for fi in $dev/* ; do
            if test `basename $fi` = "block"; then
                ls -alF $fi >> ${FILEMD}
            else
                cat-file $fi ${FILEMD}
            fi
        done
        echo >> ${FILEMD}
    done
    echo >> ${FILEMD}
done
