Cannot create mdadm raid after mdadm upgrade(Solved after reboot)

Tried several times to re-create my raid system in mdadm.  I am using the create command to generate a 3 disc raid array.

The attempts all end up with the following;

     bash-3.2# mdadm -Cv /dev/md1 -l0 -n3 -c64 /dev/sd{b,c,d}
mdadm: error opening /dev/md1: No such device or address
bash-3.2#

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: System 64 bit.

Re: Cannot create mdadm raid after mdadm upgrade(Solved after reboot)

Are you trying to reassemble an existing RAID setup or building a new one? If you're reassembling, did you try the reassemble option (-A), and do you have a config stored somewhere?

B:

Solved after reboot.  Array recognized without creating or re-creating. Why a reboot was necessary is a mystery....
