    Systemd fucked my RAID10 several times and make me wait hours of reconstruction intead of letting me continue using the system while it reconstructs. I feel as using some stupid Microsoft software. Since then I use openrc which developers try to correct the bugs before adding new features, and I am happier. I don't like binary logs, I don't like not using KISS and I don't like their deveploment way. In my new Laptop I am going to try Devuan (Debian whitout any trace of systemd).

      The only permanent fix would be systemds death.
      When it's systemd that "forces his ideas" (more like major distros decide to use it by default) it's bad, but if you are forcing your ideas on others it's fine.

      Note that there are (many) people that would really prefer systemd, its death would remove that choice for them.

        What happened here? How did systemd fuck up a RAID10 and force you to wait hours for it to reconstruct before making it usable again?

          Ask them. Not always but most times it seems that something bad was done when shutdown, and then when boot it forced me to wait for reconstruction. I changed to openrc and problem solved.

            That's somewhat generic to blame something so surely.

            and then when boot it forced me to wait for reconstruction.
            I've never experienced that, if a RAID fails on OpenSUSE or Debian it does either mount it as degraded or fail to boot and go in emergency shell (depending on configuration, Debian also had a bug about this https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugr...cgi?bug=784070 but it was their own udev scripts and I suspect that a similar thing happened to you as well).

            I think it is your distro's systemd unit file for mdadm (service configuration file) or even script or whatever else that does that.

              I agree. But for security nerds' sake, it couldn't hurt to have systemd audited at some point.

                Or you could try runit.

                  I never believe these "anecdotes" of total catastrophe - otherwise everyone using RAID10 would suffer the same result

                    its all open source - your chance to do a security audit beckons.....

                      The source for it is public and has always been, none is stopping anyone from doing that.
