This looks like a known bug that is fixed in current 2.6.10 pre-releases. > > hde is a failed drive. In this log, hdg (the other drive in the raid1 > array) is not present. This oops also occurs when hdg is present. I > don't know why it tries to use hde when it has been failed for some > time now.
It tries to use hde because it sees no reason not to. When a drive fails, md never writes to it again, so the record of it being part of a raid1 array is still there. If it is assembled with another drive that "knows" that hde has failed, then it won't accept hde into the array. But the hdg missing, hde is the best bet it has, and it tries it anyway.
