[ale] RAID recovery



Since I asked the question about speeding up the recovery, I think I'd better
ask this one as well.  After reading the Software Raid How-To
and several old ale archive messages, I'd like to know if:

mdadm /dev/md0 -a /dev/hdc1

was the right way to recover from that drive being kicked out of the array
on reboot as "not fresh" after an extended power outage.  Here is mdstat:

rapier:/proc/sys/dev/raid # mdadm --query --detail /dev/md0
/dev/md0:

I'd like to know if it will make the device "Number 1" as
it was originally and if I've recovered with the right method.  Thanks!
