Hi All, I haven't had to set up a software RAID for years and now. I want to set up two RAID 1 arrays on a new file server to serve SBM to MSWindows clients. The first RAID1 having two disks, where a multipartition OS installation will take place. The second RAID1 having two disks for a single data partition.
From what I recall I used mdadm with --auto=mdp, to create a RAID1 from 2 disks, before I used fdisk to partition the new /dev/md0 as necessary. All this is lost in the fog of time. Now I read that these days udev names the devices/partitions, so I am not sure what the implication of this is and how to proceed. What is current practice? Create multiple /dev/mdXs for the OS partitions I would want and then stick a fs on each one, or create one /dev/md0 which thereafter is formatted with multiple partitions? Grateful for any pointers to resolve my confusion. -- Regards, Mick
