SubjectRe: Need help recovering RAID array after admin error

Don't worry about it. Remake the whole array with mkraid --force
--dangerous-no-resync. Then mark the really failed disk or its
replacement as faulty with raidsetfaulty. Then take it out with
raidhotremove, then put it back wit raidhotadd. It'll be resynced
from the oter two.
