Should .stale directory be present on each of devices ?

dog node md info --all

In my case I should have 8 .stale directories, right?

Well, this is what I have right after a cluster format

parallel-ssh -i -H 'test004 test005 test006 test007' "find /mnt/sheep/
-type d -name '.stale'"
[1] 11:52:24 [SUCCESS] test005
/mnt/sheep/1/.stale
[2] 11:52:24 [SUCCESS] test004
/mnt/sheep/1/.stale
[3] 11:52:24 [SUCCESS] test006
/mnt/sheep/1/.stale
/mnt/sheep/0/.stale
[4] 11:52:24 [SUCCESS] test007
/mnt/sheep/0/.stale
