The server must of course have some disks configured. Let's say
we have this simple server with disks as a few sparse host files:
main()
{
rump_init();
rump_pub_etfs_register("/disk1", "./disk1.img", RUMP_ETFS_BLK);
rump_pub_etfs_register("/disk2", "./disk2.img", RUMP_ETFS_BLK);
rump_pub_etfs_register("/disk3", "./disk3.img", RUMP_ETFS_BLK);
rump_pub_etfs_register("/disk4", "./disk4.img", RUMP_ETFS_BLK);
pause();
}
And we run the server:
mainbus0 (root)
Kernelized RAIDframe activated
/disk1: hostpath ./disk1.img (97 GB)
/disk2: hostpath ./disk2.img (97 GB)
/disk3: hostpath ./disk3.img (97 GB)
/disk4: hostpath ./disk4.img (97 GB)
We can then configure the raid against the server:
> ./raidctl -c theraid.conf raid0
And lo, we have evidence of a level1 raid in the server dmesg:
raid0: RAID Level 1
raid0: Components: /disk1 /disk2 /disk3 /disk4
raid0: Total Sectors: 409599744 (199999 MB)
yea, i initialized it already in a previous run:
> ./raidctl -S raid0
