Oh, here's the story, had a nice 7TB raid (8 Drives + 1 hot spare), but the drives superblock info was lost and tragically, I cannot mount the RAID without knowing the order of said devices. I'm looking for a bash script that will try every possible combination of 8 drives, then try to mount the encrypted raid with mount.crypt. If mount.crypt returns an error, it obviously wasn't the correct drive combination, so the script will try the next combination on the list, if mount.crypt doesn't throw an error and instead prompts for a password, the bash script creates a "Hooray, you didn't lose 7TB of data!" victory test file. I'm slightly experienced with this type of scripting, but this one's over my head.
I will be using this command to recreate the array:
mdadm --create --name=TARDIS --symlink=no --force /dev/md7 --assume-clean --level=5 --raid-devices=8 --layout=left-symmetric --verbose
Just for laughs, here's the output of everything 'mdadm --examine' had to offer before the superblock tragedy:

The array I'm trying to recreate is TARDIS.
Any script (or pieces of script) or other help you can offer is incredibly appreciated. I'm in a total funk over losing all of the media I've collected over the years.......
Really, even a script to give me every possible combination of drives to try out would be helpful, I could just run through this process by hand (would like to avoid it, but I'm willing to put forth the effort to potentially save 7TB ;) ), and mark off each one that didn't work.
I will be using this command to recreate the array:
mdadm --create --name=TARDIS --symlink=no --force /dev/md7 --assume-clean --level=5 --raid-devices=8 --layout=left-symmetric --verbose

The array I'm trying to recreate is TARDIS.
Any script (or pieces of script) or other help you can offer is incredibly appreciated. I'm in a total funk over losing all of the media I've collected over the years.......
Really, even a script to give me every possible combination of drives to try out would be helpful, I could just run through this process by hand (would like to avoid it, but I'm willing to put forth the effort to potentially save 7TB ;) ), and mark off each one that didn't work.
