Has anyone been able to successfully setup a software raid using autoyast? I've seen a bunch of posts with questions on getting it working, but I haven't seen any successful responses. Specifically I'm trying to mirror /boot, /, and swap without using LVM. I want to keep it simple before I get advanced. It parses my xml file fine, it just can't configure my software RAID. Below is my parititioning section. I've tried many variations on it with no success. Any help is appreciated. My typical error is... "Could not format /dev/md2. You can continue if you know what you are doing, but, to prevent damage your file systems, it is safer to cancel and reboot." <partitioning config:type="list"> <drive> <device>/dev/hde</device> <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md0</raid_name> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> <size>512M</size> </partition> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md1</raid_name> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> <size>2g</size> </partition> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md2</raid_name> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> <size>200g</size> </partition> </partitions> <use>all</use> </drive> <drive> <device>/dev/hdg</device> <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md0</raid_name> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> <size>512M</size> </partition> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md1</raid_name> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> <size>2g</size> </partition> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md2</raid_name> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> <size>200g</size> </partition> </partitions> <use>all</use> </drive> <drive> <device>/dev/md</device> <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <filesystem config:type="symbol">reiser</filesystem> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>/boot</mount> <partition_id config:type="integer">131</partition_id> <partition_nr config:type="integer">0</partition_nr> <raid_options> <chunk_size>4</chunk_size> <parity_algorithm>left-asymmetric</parity_algorithm> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> </raid_options> </partition> </partitions> <use>all</use> </drive> <drive> <device>/dev/md</device> <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <filesystem config:type="symbol">swap</filesystem> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_id config:type="integer">131</partition_id> <partition_nr config:type="integer">1</partition_nr> <raid_options> <chunk_size>4</chunk_size> <parity_algorithm>left-asymmetric</parity_algorithm> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> </raid_options> </partition> </partitions> <use>all</use> </drive> <drive> <device>/dev/md</device> <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <filesystem config:type="symbol">reiserfs</filesystem> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>/</mount> <partition_id config:type="integer">131</partition_id> <partition_nr config:type="integer">2</partition_nr> <raid_options> <chunk_size>4</chunk_size> <parity_algorithm>left-asymmetric</parity_algorithm> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> </raid_options> </partition> </partitions> <use>all</use> </drive> </partitioning> -- Reynold De Marco Scientific Computing Services

I'll give it a shot with your config first, see if it does it for me then compare to mine. One additional piece of info I left out was this is on an x86_64 version of SLES 9.
Yikes, Reynold! I just cut 332 lines out off the top of your 3 line reply! Would you please consider trimming your posts? I'm subscribed, so I get complete threads. When I need to refer back to something, I'll look up the previous post. Thanks! - Carl
Your xml file made me see where I had my mistake! Thanks so much. The problem I had was in the definition of the md partitions, I specified a raid_type of raid1. When defining the md partitions, you specified a raid_type of raid. The raid1 in this section was what was causing mine to error on the actual partition creation. Thanks for the help!!!! Below was my error code... <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md0</raid_name> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> <size>512M</size> </partition> It should have been: <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md0</raid_name> <raid_type>raid</raid_type> <size>512M</size> </partition> -- Reynold De Marco Scientific Computing Services
