Seems I need to disable RAID, but don't find the option in the bios. 4ea 1 terabyte drives in raid 10 is the current setup. >From what I read, I need to disable the onboard raid and let Centos do the work. But I don't find any method to stop the raid. Norm Schklar

i''ve external storage (2 x 1TB drives) attached via a Multilane SATA + RAID card (driver:sata_sil24). my goal is a file server in DomU, serving files from a RAID array of the two drives. my Dom0, fwiw, is OpenSuse 11.1. 3 types of file service will be provided: - large, media files will be served to the LAN - active data files will be served to other DomUs over a private bridge - a

Hi all, Installing 5.5 on a fresh system having an Intel RAID. My 2 drives are configured as a mirror within the Intel BIOS. When starting my install, Anaconda throws an exception. After a brief goog, I see one possible fix is - at the install prompt, type; linux text nodmraid This is fine and all but Centos sees 2 disks at this point rather then 1 which is what I thought the Intel RAID

I have been reading lots of stuff but trying to find out if a raid10 2drive setup is any better/worse than a normal raid 1 setup....I have to 1Tb drives for my data and a seperate system drive, I am only interested in doing raid on my data... So i setup my initial test like this.... mdadm -v --create /dev/md0 --chunk 1024 --level=raid10 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 I have also read

Hello. A couple of years ago I installed two file-servers using kickstart. The server has two 1TB sata disks with two software raid1 partitions as follows: # cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md1 : active raid1 sdb4[1] sda4[0] 933448704 blocks [2/2] [UU] md0 : active raid1 sdb1[1] sda2[2](F) 40957568 blocks [2/1] [_U] Now the drives are starting to be failing and next week

It isn't a hardware RAID, but instead

the main advantage I know of for bios fake-raid is that the bios can boot off either of the two mirrored boot devices. usually if the sata0 device has failed, the BIOS isn't smart enough to boot from sata1 the only other reason is if you're running MS Windows desktop which can't do mirroring on its own On Mon, Nov 16, 2020 at 10:23 AM Jonathan Billings <billings at

I am setting up a Centos 6.5 box to host some Openvz containers. I have a 120gb SSD I am going to use for boot, / and swap. Should allow for fast boots. Have a 4TB drive I am going to mount as /backup and use to move container backups too etc. The remaining four 3TB drives I am putting in a software RAID 10 array and mount as /vz and all the containers will go there. It will have by far the

Hi, I have been trying to install CentOS 5.4 on a Intel SR1530SHS, Intel S3200SH mainboard.. It has a 3 x 1TB sata hotswap drives with LSI software raid onboard. I had configured the LSI to have Sata0 and Sata1 with raid 1 and the third drive as a hotspare drive. Format the harddisk and installation was a breeze. The server rebooted into a blank screen and the cursor just keep blinking. Please

What is the HBA the drives are attached to? Have you done a quick benchmark on a single disk to check if this is a raid problem or further down the stack?

I have been having some problems with hardware RAID 1 on the motherboard that I am running CentOS 7 on. After a BIOS upgrade of the system, I lost the RAID 1 setup and was no longer able to boot the system. Testdisk revealed that the partition tables had been damaged and because I had earlier saved information from fdisk, I was able to recreate the partitions. However, booting into the BIOS and

Dear Everybody, I am telling you the whole story, perhaps you can give me a better idea. Almost 3 years ago I purchased Arima HDAMA rev. G motherboard with integrated Silicon Image Sil3114 Serial ATA 4 Ports SATA I adapter. ( http://www.arimacorp.com/ViewProduct.asp?View=86 ) . BIOS version is 2.13. My intention is to make a file server, using linux software raid, so I bought 2 new shiny 1TB
