Hardware RAID5 + PVE

[Maxim]

Hi!
Of the 4 hard drives, create an array of Raid-5 (hardware), 5-disk set Proxmox VE 1.6.
Tell me please, as is now the array connected to the PVE to install virtual machines.
thanks!

Sorry, I do not understand your question.

Besides, what kind of hardware RAID controller is that (looks more like fake-raid)?

 

[Maxim]

04:00.0 RAID bus controller: Adaptec AAC-RAID (rev 09)

Through the web interface is nowhere in sight of the array.
4 hard drives of 750 GB, are created RAID5

can I do something wrong explain

Hi,
this is'nt a real raid-controller!

[Maxim]

Why? the PC is glandule raid controller
and now what do I do?

 

[dietmar]

AFAIK that is a fake-raid controller (Adaptec 24x0).

I you want a RAID controller you need to buy one.

 

[Maxim]

why fake?
and as we now see the array?

 

[dietmar]

04:00.0 RAID bus controller: Adaptec AAC-RAID (rev 09)

We call that 'fake-RAID' because it claims to be a RAID controller.

 

[tom]

post the full spec and retail name of your raid controller.

 

[Maxim]

Adaptec RAID 5405

 

[tom]

this is a real hardware raid controller. so back to the beginning - what is the problem?
if you are building one volume (e.g. raid5 with 4 disks) using the raid bios you will only see one disk - sda.

 

[Maxim]

I proxmox ve 1.6 placed on a separate fifth disc, but as I see the array in the web interface (that I created of four discs).
must be such as to connect it?

 

[tom]

please tell us your complete disk/raid setup. if you use a controller with 4 connections you cannot install 5 disks!

 

[Maxim]

fifth disk connected separately!

 

[tom]

again, pls start again with:

• describing your FULL SETUP
• and describe what you have done
• and describe the problem you have

its not possible to help if you just post some small parts.

 

[Maxim]

What I did:
1. raid controller + 4h750 GB hard drive = RAID5 array: 2TB, 500Gb, 300GB
2.Vzyal another hard drive as a boot and put it on him proxmox ve
3.Hochu deployed on the array of virtual machines. I do not see the array.

 

[Maxim]

how to put proxmox to an array which is greater than 2 TB?

 

[Maxim]

all that he did have!
