Building Out XenServer 6.5 with USB Boot and Software RAID 10
-
It is automounting since we added it to our fstab
-
After adding the array as storage xenserver , the output of df -Th changes to this
-
I removed the /dev/md10 entry from fstab so it doesn't automount and causes conflict with xenserver handling storage
-
Xencenter after reboots properly automounts our new array
-
We need to get the UUID out of the proposed script, that much I know won't work.

Ah, good catch. I'm updating the OP with a finalized script. Please review.
-
I got the uuid using this:
madadm --detail /dev/md10 | grep UUID
-
We don't need to install mdadm, its there already

What is the raw output of that command? Did you need to clean it up? I want this scripted, not manual, if possible.
-
i'm going to have to try this out, i have an old dell with FAKERAID.
-
This is the output @scottalanmiller just have to replace : with -
UUID : fba59a9c:7e6db5a2:d21e4034:3b415cfd

You can do it anywhere. No FakeRAID needed since the whole point is to bypass it. Works equally well where there is no FakeRAID too.

echo "modprobe raid10" > /etc/sysconfig/modules/raid.modules
modprobe raid10
chmod a+x /etc/sysconfig/modules/raid.modulesmdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=10 --raid-devices=4 /dev/sd[a-d]
Loading the modules to kernel need to go before creating the md device
-
@romo can you confirm if this command works?
madadm --detail /dev/md10 | grep UUID | cut -d' ' -f3 -
I got a blank output after fixing madadm to mdadm
-
It worked on the output that you gave to me.
-
See what -f2 does.
-
I refreshed the OP with the latest revisions.
