RAID 10 on an MD3000
Aug 5 2008, 10:27 AM EDT
Hey guys,
When configuring R10 via MDSM there is no "RAID 10" option.
Can a customer just pick R1 and apply it to 4 or more drives?

Hello Brian,

you are right, if you want to configure a raid 10 via mdsm start the MDSM then open configure choose create virtual drive , click next, then choose as method manual , choose raid 1, add 4 drives (step per step), mark the 4 selected drives in the right window , then click on the capacity button, the size will be shown, the raid will be created and you see in the main window that there are 2 virtual dirves are shown with raid 1 and 0, but there is only 1 logical drive.
(couldnt give you the exact steps due to I`m using the german MDSM version)

Cheers
