When I issue the mkraid /dev/md0
it complains about the ext2 filesystem.
Am I supposed to use fdisk first?

Okay, I've got (2) 6.4gb Quantum Fireball drives that I want to raid-root
per the recent RedHat 6.1 conversation. I also have a crappy old 210mb WD
drive that /boot was going to reside on. Now the question is this:
Will the WD drive "drag" one of the Quantums down? And if so, enough to

Hi everyone--
I have a question for everyone on the list: What hardware would you use
for a RAID system? I want it to be as robust as possible. It does not need
to be all that fast (equiv. or better than UDMA33 would be nice). I am
concerned with failover mostly -- Hot swap and recons

I'd be interested in writing an installer/duplicator...

Re: Multi host access SCSI buses.
GFS is what you guys want. Filesystem that will allow multiple access
at the drive level. eg 2+ seperate hosts accessing a drive
simultaneously. Seagate are co-operating to develop a SCSI standard
for drive locking. (firmware updates available).

Is it available if you do a kickstart installation?

I am solidly with Daniel on this. Why does no one ever use the fact that
a graphical interface can be put on top of a text mode interface (we have
multitasking don't we?) and thus kept equivalent instead of divergent?
It is self-documenting too at the developer level.

Does this mean that kickstart scripts don't work, or can I use them with
the new graphical installer?

You're kidding, aren't you? Seems like RedHat is really trying to go the SuSE

Hi,
Yes. You can install root to a raid device during the install. However
you will still need to have a /boot that is not on the raid device.
This is a feature of the new graphical installer. Creating raid
partitions is not available if you are using the text mode installer.

does the redhat 6.1 installation allow for root mounted raid? It would be
nice to just be able to insert a couple boot disks, and install straight
from nfs/ftp or cdrom, and not have to tweak anything manually.

to quote from the press release, 6.1 has "seamless integration of software
RAID configurations to safeguard critical data and application
availability". RAID-wise, is anything different from 6.0 except the version
of the patches/tools included?

I have no problem with remove. My problem is about getting my disk to
spin up again after insertion. But
A few applications for some of this thought.
1) I have long lusted after something Like MC/ServiceGuard on Linux.
My favorite setup is one EMC RAID box being shared by two HP-UX systems,
inter-connected with MC\ServiceGuard. Running thin-server Oracle makes
this a sweet deal. Two of these with Or
