Question with --assume-clean

Hi,

If I use --assume-clean and then run a check, will this perform the
initialization when using a RAID-1/RAID-6?

No - check doesn't write anything.

But if you use --assume-clean then run a 'repair', it will perform the
initialisation that --assume-clean deliberately avoided.

Hi Neil,

Will run a repair on each, thank you.
