Hi Muhammad,<br>
<br>
Raid 10 is not common for a fake Raid, I would presume it is real
Raid. Do you know what Raid Controller you have ? Normally, the
hardware drivers are included in the linux kernel, and Promox kernel
(the last, 2.6.32-6 is based on RHEL 6 one) contains a lot of them.
The Proxmox team even includes more drivers if they are available
and are requested by users.<br>
<br>
But the normal way to setup Raid volume (for example Raid 10), if it
is a real hardware Raid Conttroller, is to enter the Raid bios Setup
(often Ctrl-A when you power on the server), and inside this Raid
setup, you configure your Raid (selecting the level, the disks
included in the volume, and so on, see the documentation of your
Raid Controller). Then there is a long Raid initialization phase,
and only when it is completed, you can try to install Proxmox-ve. If
the Raid controller is recognized, the installer will see one disk,
your Raid 10 volume, and happilly install on it.<br>
<br>
Be sure there is a Battery Board Unit (BBU) on your Raid Controller
if there is Ram cache.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps.<br>

Dear All,<br>

Proxmox 1.9 pr 1.8 with RAID 10 option this is a
builtin motherboard<br>
option. now the problem is when i use the bootable CD
for this<br>
motherboard that contain the RAID Drivers (Regardless
of fake or<br>
hardware RAID) i can see only 3 OS options. RHEL ,
Windows, SUSE but i<br>
can not see debian or any other. now my need is RAID
10 with Proxmox and<br>
CD is not compatible with Proxmox . please guide me to
overcome the issue.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
It is quite common as a question, the answer is always the
same, do not use the fake RAID.<br>
<br>
How data are stored is unique to the model of the
motherboard. If the motherboard fails, it will have the same
model to retrieve data from RAID.<br>
<br>
So using the Linux RAID software or true RAID hardware with
a card.<br>
<br>
In the case of RAID hardware, check which models are
compatible with each other and buy a spare card.<br>
<br>
<br>
