Hi, I have bought a SuperMicro SuperServer with 4 SCSI drive armed with adaptech RAID 2010S. Now I've configured Hardware RAID-5. and Now I need to install Redhat7.3 on my SuperServer. How can I configure my linux to use this RAID-5 configuration? Is it some specific consideration for partiotioning virtual space which I view when I want to partiotion in linus, using disk druid? Is it needed to use some other specific tools or programs to make RAID-5 usable? please help me as soon as possible!
