David Thomas Baker » Linux » Setting up Raid 1 on Linux
Here's the process for when I forget next time:
Create new linux partitions to be used in the software raid array, use mdadm to set them up, wait for them to sync, then create the filesystem on the new md0
# fdisk /dev/hdX
# mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/hdX1 /dev/hdY1
# watch cat /proc/mdstat (takes 30 mins for 80GB)
# add ARRAY /dev/md0 devices=/dev/hdc1,/dev/hdd1 to /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf
# reboot
# mkfs.ext3 /dev/md0
/dev/md0 is now ready to be used :)
