Package mdadm

The mdadm program controls Linux md devices (software RAID arrays)

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/

The mdadm program is used to create, manage, and monitor Linux MD (software
RAID) devices. As such, it provides similar functionality to the raidtools
package. However, mdadm is a single program, and it can perform
almost all functions without a configuration file, though a configuration
file can be used to help with some common tasks.
