Raid Q

Raid Q

[Jose Nathaniel G. Nengasca]

I just created RAID1, and now its running smoothly... Now how can I add raid
device to fstab? coz i always type 'mkraid' during restart and to solve this
i added it on /etc/rc.d/rc.local.. so i guess fstab is the answer, so that i
dont use /etc/rc.d/rc.local or run mkraid manually everytime it start...

Thanks

It probably depends on which distribution you're running, but on Red Hat
or SuSE you just need to add an entry to /etc/raidtab for your raid1
device (man raidtab for details) and if you also want to mount the
device at boot time, add an entry to /etc/fstab too.
