I appreciate the feed back. Here is what I am getting.
~ # mdadm manage /dev/md4 --add /dev/hdj1
mdadm: An option must be given to set the mode before a second device is listed
~ # mdadm --add /dev/md4 /dev/hdj1
mdadm: add new device failed for /dev/hdj1 as 2: Invalid argument
and for kicks :)
~ # mdadm manage --add /dev/md4 /dev/hdj1
mdadm: error opening manage: No such file or directory
~ # mdadm --add manage /dev/md4 /dev/hdj1
mdadm: error opening manage: No such file or directory
