Hi,

I have created a xfs directory using GUI on a 4 disk RAID-5. I can see the RAID-5 is mounted on the directory using uuid. However, i cannot find the uuid in the /dev/disk/by-uuid/ folder. in fact, I cannot find the uuid in the entire proxmox system. I have two other directories, I can find their uuid in the /dev/disk/by-uuid folder. Please note I have not rebooted the server after creating the directory.

My questions are:

1) After a reboot, will my device be still mounted or will this get unmounted / deleted?
2) Is there any chance, that i shall loose all my content within that device?

Server: Dell 730xd
Controller: PERC 730 mini (For creating RAID-5)
