When --incremental is used to assemble array incrementally (as is envisioned for udev hotplugging)
--incremental --scan --run does not start anything.
"mdadm --incremental --scan --run" does not start the arrays that have been partially assembled by prior "mdadm --incremental <devices>" commands.
We would need a command to start a specific arrays that we have found incrementally after a timeout has passed.
(Having to starting all partially assembled arrays degraded would be depreciated.)
Idealy this should still allow to --increment further members (auto-readonly) later on.
Binary package hint: mdadm
(ubuntu 8.04)

Something like: "mdadm --incremental --run /dev/mdX"
