A couple of hints about RedHat 6.1 and RAID.
1. /etc/rc.sysinit contains the line
for i in `grep "raiddev" /etc/raidtab | awk '{print $2}'`
which generates an error if "raiddev" appears in a comment, as it will if
you use the sample raid0.conf as your model. I changed this to
I'm reviewing the docs in preparation for installing the
software RAID. Specifically RAID 1.
The readme for raidtools-0.41 says:
"RAID-1 doesn't support mixed SCSI/non-SCSI pairs."
Can anyone tell me if this is still the case?
TIA

First start with some added information.
Ok. I use a Debian potato system. The kernel is 2.2.13 (compiled by
myself) without any patches. The raid tools are 0.42 (old style raid).
Appended you'll find the conf files for raid5. I use three scsi d

Hi,
I have redhat linux 6 with two scsi hard disk A & B. Each have three
partitions.I want to implement software raid 1.The partitions are of same size
on both hard disk. HARDDISK A was running for the last 1 year. HARDDISK B is
just added.
Now how will i mirror the two so that my data dont ge
I have a Supermicro MB with a built-in Adaptec AIC-7895 (Dual UWSCSI 2)
which seems to have some stability problems...sometimes. The machine is also
SMP which I believe contributes. What happens is that when using some of my
SCSI devices the machine will sometimes lock up completely with no messag

Whenever I do
mkraid /dev/md1
I get an error message about md0 and md1 have overlapping physical
units. Normally I would ignore such a message, but my first atttempt
to construct raid1 hasn't worked so well.
When I finished and boot the system, I always get errors that say that

I dunno about Suse, but Mandrake 7.0 has raid 0.9 support precompiled
and a groovey app called diskdrake to configure all your partitions and
raid devices (even at install) I've been using the 7.0beta succesfully
for about 4 weeks.

This would be, of course, the best.
I took the patch I grabbed at work on a SUN box and loaded it... it was 60K
smaller than the one I was loading last night. Patched a fresh 2.2.14
kernel with no problems and the raid is up and running!
Thanks for everyone's help, and Damn you, Bill Gates for your Kludged 8 bit
GUI OS!

Well,

IIRC the raid5syncd had the same issue and it was fixed... most
likely it'll be a very similar fix so if anyone remembers either

Ive had occasional, maybe 6 lockups since I bought my ABit BP6/dual

Since installing the raid patches on my hpt366-patched kernel last
week, its locked up much more often, tonight 4 times.
I left it running all day with 2 RC5 clients running, and it was
Ok, I'm going to get linux raid running on suse6.3 or mandrake 7.0 , which
ever I get first.
After I get raidtools 0.9, what patch do I need for the kernels , and where
can I get them ???
Thanks
