Title: Manage Disk Redundancy cannot Detech HDD on Fresh Installation SMEserver10
Post by: darmasanthi on November 24, 2021, 06:47:01 AM

Hi,
Just trying to install smeserver10 with 1x2TB HDD.
There is no issues with the installation process.
But, after installation. We try to add the second HDD for RAID1.
Try accessing the console, and try to running the Manage Disk Redundancy.
But the second HDD is not detected.
Is there any how to process the RAID1.

regards,
darmasanthi

This is not possible with a single disk install.

You need to have 2 or more HDs present on installation to create a Raid

See wiki pages

Having said that there is a thread on the forums setting up a single HD/SSD with sme10 and then creating a seperate multi disk raid array and mounting it to a point on the system disk using for eg fstab, this then handles all data etc, up to you, there is plenty of info on the forum and in the wiki with details on how to do this.
