Setting up raid on an existing debian installation

Instalasi ini dilakukan untuk menambah harddisk pada server yang sudah running, yang sebelumnya hanya memiliki harddisk satu. Kapasitas harddisk kedua sama dengan harddisk pertama. Untuk ini saya memakai RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) , Raid1 saya gunakan karena menggunakan 2 harddisk dan dapat saling menggantikan jika salah satu harddisk rusak.

Berikut instalasi dan konfigurasi Raid 1 pada sistem operasi Linux Debian Lenny.

Disk /dev/sdb doesn’t contain a valid partition table

/dev/sdb adalah harddisk kedua yang sudah saya pasang di server. Kapasitas harddisk pertama dan kedua sama yaitu 1 Terabyte.

Re-reading the partition table …

If you created or changed a DOS partition, /dev/foo7, say, then use dd(1)
to zero the first 512 bytes:  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/foo7 bs=512 count=1
(See fdisk(8).)

Silahkan test dengan melepas harddisk pertama atau kedua dan testing boot satu persatu. Jika berhasil tutorial ini bermanfaat bagi anda, jika gagal silahkan di ulangin kembali sampai berhasil.

Selesai.
