I just did RAID once with mdadm and I noticed that everything
could be done with a command line. If I recall correctly, there
is an option for having the current configuration written-out in
the syntax that can be used for mdadm.conf. With regard to the
comment "it's generally just done with the mdadm --create
command lines I believe ..." I would like to point out that
creating an mdadm.conf after configuring would be useful for
recovery from a hardware failure.

I don't think it's deprecated at all, but I don't believe that mdadm.conf is
used like that these days, it's generally just done with the mdadm --create
command lines I believe..
cheers!
