Complete!

先確認自己的主機板RAID是否在dmraid支援清單。

[[email protected] ~]# dmraid  -l
asr     : Adaptec HostRAID ASR (0,1,10)
ddf1    : SNIA DDF1 (0,1,4,5,linear)
hpt37x  : Highpoint HPT37X (S,0,1,10,01)

jmicron : JMicron ATARAID (S,0,1)
lsi     : LSI Logic MegaRAID (0,1,10)

pdc     : Promise FastTrack (S,0,1,10)
sil     : Silicon Image(tm) Medley(tm) (0,1,10)
via     : VIA Software RAID (S,0,1,10)
dos     : DOS partitions on SW RAIDs

將剛才在BIOS中建立好的RAID驅動。這裡我使用四顆1TB做RAID10。

[[email protected] ~]# dmraid  -a y
RAID set "isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0" already active
device "isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0-0" is now registered with dmeventd for monitoring
device "isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0-1" is now registered with dmeventd for monitoring
device "isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0" is now registered with dmeventd for monitoring

在/dev/mapper/確認始否有出現我們要的RAID。確認後可以直接掛載使用了。

[[email protected] ~]# ls /dev/mapper/
control                isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0-0
isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0  isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0-1
[[email protected] ~]# fdisk -l /dev/mapper/isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0 

Disk /dev/mapper/isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0: 2000.4 GB, 2000404086784 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 243201 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disk /dev/mapper/isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0 doesn't contain a valid partition table
[[email protected] ~]# mount /dev/mapper/isw_fbdgghbcg_Volume0 /home
