storaged replaces udisks2

The udisks2 package provides dynamic storage management functionality to legacy Fedora systems. Most prominently, desktop environments like GNOME udisks to handle removable media, such as USB thumb drives, via a dbus interface.

Because udisks2 does not support more complex storage technologies such as LVM or iSCSI, it is being replaced in Fedora 25 by storaged, an enhanced fork of the udisks project. storaged is a drop-in replacement for udisks2, and the additional functionality allows administrators to use software like Cockpit in Fedora Server to manage these advanced storage resources.

Detailed information on the storaged project is available from the upstream site at https://storaged.org .

-improvements were done for Fedora 11:
-* Provide two new systemtap scripts to monitor disk and network activity of running applications
-* Add a workload framework package called BLTK to offer reproducible tests
-* Improved applications to reduce unnecessary disk and/or network activity
-* Enabled several new features to save power:
-** relatime option for root file system /
-** Enable USB autosuspend for known working devices
-** Add optional tuned service to dynamically adapt system settings to the current use
-Users of Fedora 11 should therefore see a reduction in power usage of their system.
-==== pm-utils ====
-The pm-utils power management utilities have been updated to 1.2.4.  Some improvements have been made in logging and configuration.

-=== mdadm ===
-mdadm has been updated to 3.0. The significant change which justifies the new major version number is that mdadm can now handle metadata updates entirely in userspace.  This allows mdadm to support metadata formats that the kernel knows nothing about.

-Currently two such metadata formats are supported:

-Also the approach to device names has changed significantly.
