RAID5:
mdadm
是一个全新的raid管理工具,rhel LINUX版本 >= RHEL4.
要求:需要在三块硬盘上创建RAID5 并挂载到 /raid5disk 目录下!
先用fdisk -l 看一下三块磁盘的设备号,在这里就是
/dev/sdb
/dev/sdc
/dev/sdd
1. 首先在三块硬盘上分别创建一个分区!
# fdisk /dev/sdb
Command (m for help): n 按n创建新分区
Command action
e extended
p primary partition
(1-4) 输入p 选择创建主分区
Partition number (1-4): 输入
1 创建第一个主分区
First cylinder (1-204, default 1): 直接回车,选择分区开始柱面这里就从 1 开始
Last cylinder or +size or +sizeM or +sizeK
(1-204, default 204):
也是直接回车,最后一个柱面!我这里是204, 各人的硬盘大小不一样大,这里的值也不一样大!
这
样就将硬盘1柱面到204柱面创建了第一个主分区!
Command (m for
help): t 输入t 指定分区类型!
Selected partition 1
Hex
code (type L to list codes):
可以直接输入fd,指定分区类型就为Linux raid auto
也可以输入l看一下所有支持的分区类型!
我这里倒数第三个就是raid的分区类型代号为fd
Command (m for help): w 然后输入w写盘!
The partition
table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
Syncing disks.
按照此步骤在另外的两块磁盘上做同样的操作!
全部做完后,运行 fdisk -l
应该可以看到如下信息!
Disk /dev/sdb: 214 MB, 214748160
bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 204 cylinders
Units = cylinders
of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes
Device Boot Start End
Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 1 204
208880 fd Linux raid autodetect
Disk /dev/sdc: 214 MB, 214748160 bytes
64
heads, 32 sectors/track, 204 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 *
512 = 1048576 bytes
Device Boot Start End
Blocks Id System
/dev/sdc1 1 204
208880 fd Linux raid autodetect
Disk /dev/sdd: 214 MB, 214748160 bytes
64
heads, 32 sectors/track, 204 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 *
512 = 1048576 bytes
Device Boot Start End
Blocks Id System
/dev/sdd1 1 204
208880 fd Linux raid autodetect
看到上面三个磁盘上分别建了一个分区,分区大小都一样!
然后再运行
#mdadm -Cv /dev/md0 -l5 -n3 /dev/sdb1
/dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1
这里就在三个分区上创建了raid5 软件陈列, 新的分区设备号为md0
然后格式化一下md0分区
[root@localhost ~]# mkfs.ext3
/dev/md0
mke2fs 1.35 (28-Feb-2004)
Filesystem label=

This filesystem will be automatically checked
every 29 mounts or
180 days, whichever comes first. Use tune2fs -c
or -i to override.
根据分区大小一样,这里需要的时间也会不一样!
然后在
#mkdir /raid5disk
在/上建一个目录raid5disk
然后用mount 将md0挂上去!
#mount /dev/md0 /raid5disk/
好了,试试到raiddisk目录建几个文件!
为了让系统重新启动后自动挂载,可以修改一下/etc/fstab文件,添加一行!
/dev/md0
/raid5disk auto defaults 0 0
这样系统重新启动后会自动将/dev/md0挂接到 /raid5disk目录下!
好了!一切OK!
再查看一下md0的状态!
[root@localhost ~]# mdadm -D
/dev/md0
/dev/md0:

一切正常!
备注:
删除已有的software raid:
1.stop /dev/mdX:
mdadm
-S /dev/mdX
或者rm /dev/mdX
2.del /etc/mdadm.conf
3.del raid
mount in /etc/fstab and autofs
4.del raid part use fdisk or parted
