raid0 error on EX100 #49

Closed tropo76 closed 2 years ago

tropo76 commented 2 years ago

hello,

we can not use SWRAIDLEVEL 0 with EX100 installimage partition configuration.

PART /boot/efi esp 256M PART swap swap 4G PART /boot ext3 1024M PART / ext4 all

It seems the EFI ESP does not accept raid0

this PART is not on AX installimage configuration I have no issue on AX servers.

The EFI System Partition (ESP) is always treated special because it UEFI firmware cannot read RAID arrays. As such it is either created as plain FAT32 partitions or as a special RAID1 which does not look like a RAID to the UEFI firmware. Also /boot will always be created as RAID1. In summary the SWRAIDLEVEL applies to all partitions except the ESP and /boot.
