mdadm: /dev/sdb appears to be part of a raid array:
level=raid1 devices=2 ctime=Thu Dec 31 19:37:11 2009
mdadm: /dev/sdc appears to be part of a raid array:
level=raid1 devices=2 ctime=Thu Dec 31 19:37:11 2009
Continue creating array? yes
mdadm: array /dev/md0 started.
root[~]# mdadm -As --homehost=archiv
mdadm: /dev/md/0 has been started with 2 drives.
I would like that mdadm finds the devices itself and assembles it by itself according to same homehost or uuid in each md superblock.

The point is that I have to provide the --homehost parameter for Assemble mode explicitly. But when I use the Examine mode, mdadm can find it by itself. Strange and confusing behaviour, isn't it?

My (and others ?) thoughts exactly!
No problem. Then I will try to get help from the mdadm developers, reasons why they did it this way (manpage says something, but not clear to me)
