Hello, today I was busy investigating hardware RAID for my Dell poweredge
2500. As far as I can see I want the RAID 0+1 configuration:
( 4x 70GB)
Logical device set RAID 0 (2 striped disks) : SCSI ID 2 and SCSI ID 3.
this RAID 0 set will then be mirrored in a RAID 1 mirror set of 2 disks:
SCSI ID 1 and SCSI ID 2
------------------------- ----------------------
| ______ _______ | RAID 1| _______ _______ |
| | ID2 | | ID3 | | ----> | | ID0 | | ID1 | |
| ------- ------- | | ------- ------- |
------------------------- ----------------------

RAID 0
I configured the RAID 0 set as bootable in the PERC 3 Dell tool
Then, I booted into the Debian setup, and checked with fdisk,
I have /dev/sdb1 : 140GB
but I also have a /dev/sda1 of 70GB, this is something I should not see, I
presume? Is there something wrong then? I thought the only thing Linux
should see is the RAID 0 striped set of 140GB?
Hoping I made my problem clear enough,
Jurgen
