I'm trying to setup a new Linux-server with an on board RAID-controller (Promise PDC20265 FastTrak100 Lite/Ultra100). Now everything goes well until I try to do a pvcreate on one of the raid-partitions, this is the output I get: # pvcreate /dev/mapper/pdc_edcfibbf4 Device /dev/mapper/pdc_edcfibbf4 not found.
But the device-file is there (along with the other partitions). # ll /dev/mapper/pdc_edcfibbf* brw------- 1 root root 253, 7 Nov 4 18:22 /dev/mapper/pdc_edcfibbf brw------- 1 root root 253, 8 Nov 4 18:22 /dev/mapper/pdc_edcfibbf1 brw------- 1 root root 253, 9 Nov 4 18:22 /dev/mapper/pdc_edcfibbf2 brw------- 1 root root 253, 10 Nov 4 18:22 /dev/mapper/pdc_edcfibbf3 brw------- 1 root root 253, 11 Nov 4 18:22 /dev/mapper/pdc_edcfibbf4 and dmraid shows the raidgroup OK: # dmraid -s *** Active Set name : pdc_edcfibbf size : 160086465 stride : 128 type : mirror status : ok subsets: 0 devs : 2 spares : 0 Any suggestions on how I can solve this issue and move on with my installation.
