Tarak, could you do me a flavor, and reread, what I've already written last time? Then, attempt to answer the single question below, please. > RAID operation on 8 harddisks each of size 1TB with 7 harddisks as raid > devices and 1 hard disk as spare device got succeed. > #parted -s /dev/md0 print > Model: Linux Software RAID Array (md) > Disk /dev/md0: 6001GB > Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B > Partition Table: gpt > Number Start End Size File system Name Flags > 1 1049kB 60.0GB 60.0GB xfs primary > 2 60.0GB 6001GB 5941GB xfs primary > > > Then We create 2 partitions md0p1 and md0p2. > > #cat /proc/partitions > major minor #blocks name > 31 0 8192 mtdblock0 > 31 1 131072 mtdblock1 > 8 0 976762584 sda > 8 1 976760832 sda1 > 8 16 976762584 sdb > 8 17 976760832 sdb1 > 8 32 976762584 sdc > 8 33 976760832 sdc1 > 8 48 976762584 sdd > 8 49 976760832 sdd1 > 8 64 976762584 sde > 8 65 976760832 sde1 > 8 80 976762584 sdf > 8 81 976760832 sdf1 > 8 96 976762584 sdg > 8 97 976760832 sdg1 > 8 112 976762584 sdh > 8 113 976760832 sdh1 > 9 0 5860563456 md0 > 259 0 58604544 md0p1 > 259 1 5801957376 md0p2 Why do you insist in creating partitions in an already partitioned device? Just do: mkfs.xfs /dev/md0 mount /dev/md0 /mnt and be done. It *is* that easy. md0p1 and md0p2 are obsolete in this scenario. If you need a more complicated setup, check out lvm.
