Would you mind elaborating?  I don't quite understand what you are
saying.  "init 6" is a shutdown sequence - what it does is dependent on
your init scripts, but you _certainly_ want to stop md devices before
you stop enbd, if the md devices are running on top of enbd!  So you
should take care to do so in the shutdown sequence. If you have let
a "killall5" be issued, then that is certainly a mistake.

Otherwise you will have a raid whose disks have disappeared, and it
could do anything, including going back in time and killing your
grandfather. Twice :).
