Hello,
I use software raid for a long time without any trouble. Today, I have
to install a partitionable raid1 array over iSCSI. I have some questions
because I don't understand how make this kind of array.
I have a sparc64 (T1000) with a JBOD (U320 SCSI) that runs a 2.6.23
linux kernel and debian testing distribution.
/dev/sda : internal SAS drive -> OS
/dev/sdb : internal SAS drive -> OS
I have made on /dev/sda and /dev/sdb seven raid1 volumes (non
partitionables arrays).
/dev/sd[c-h] : external U320 drives. Each 300 GB drive only contains one
"type fd" partition.
I have tried to create a partitionable array with :
Root gershwin:[/usr/src/linux-2.6.23] > mdadm -C /dev/mdp0 -l5
--auto=mdp4 -n6 /dev/sd[c-h]1
Try
/dev/md/d0
or
/dev/md_d0
as suggested in the "DEVICE NAMES" section of the man page.
However what you used should work. I'll get that fixed for the next
release.
Thanks, it works now. I have seen this note, thus I have remaned my
array mdp0, but it was not enough ;-)
Regards,
JKB
