(Sorry I missed the previous email)

No, you don't have to do anything else.  When you "Fix-ed" the first
time, the MD array was fixed with correct info.  If you were to run
evmsn/evmsgui right after that, you would see your volumes back.

However, you have found a bug that we will need to fix right away. 
Thank you for bringing up to our attention.
