From 2dab69c9e3acace828bbb6a00514fa820f8ca64f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mariusz Tkaczyk Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2017 14:59:46 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Monitor: Include containers in spare migration Spare migration doesn't work for external metadata. mdadm skips a container with spare device because it is inactive. It used to work because GET_ARRAY_INFO ioctl returned valid structure for a container and mdadm treated such response as active container. Current implementation checks it in sysfs where container is shown as inactive. Adapt sysfs implementation to work the same way as ioctl.
