16.8. Creating RAID in the web console
Configure RAID in the RHEL 10 web console.
Prerequisites
You have installed the RHEL 10 web console.
For instructions, see Installing and enabling the web console.
-
You have installed the
cockpit-storagedpackage on your system. - You have connected physical disks and they are visible by the system.
Procedure
- Log in to the RHEL 10 web console.
- In the panel, click Storage.
- In the Storage table, click the menu button and select Create MDRAID device.
- In the Create RAID Device field, enter a name for the new RAID.
- In the RAID Level drop-down list, select a level of RAID you want to use.
- From the Chunk Size drop-down list, select the size from the list of available options. The Chunk Size value specifies how large each block is for data writing. For example, if the chunk size is 512 KiB, the system writes the first 512 KiB to the first disk, the second 512 KiB is written to the second disk, and the third chunk is written to the third disk. If you have three disks in your RAID, the fourth 512 KiB is written to the first disk again.
- Select the disks you want to use for RAID.
- Click Create.
Verification
- Go to the Storage section and check that you can see the new RAID in the RAID devices box.
