.B HOMEHOST
The
.B homehost
line gives a default value for the
.B --homehost=
option to mdadm. There should be exactly one other word on the line.
It should either exactly
.B <system>
or a host name.
If
.B <system>
is given, then the
.BR gethostname ( 2 )
systemcall is used to get the host name.
When arrays are created, this host name will be stored in the
metadata. When arrays are assembled using auto-assembly, only arrays
with this host name stored in the metadata will be considered.
