arrays?
There are currently two sets of tools available. Both sets work quite well, and have essentially the same functionalty. I recommend the newer set of tools, because they’re much easier to use, but I’ll mention where to get the older tools as well. The new set of tools is called mdadm. It doesn’t have much of a homepage, but you can download tarballs and RPMs from [http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/ source/mdadm/] http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/. I suggest that anyone who isn’t already familar with the ‘raidtools’ package use these (and in fact, I suggest that folks who already know the raidtools package switch over to these). The older set of tools is called raidtools. They’re available from [http:// people.redhat.com/mingo/raidtools/] http://people.redhat.com/mingo/raidtools /. I believe there are other locations available, since Red Hat Linux is shipping based on a tarball numbered 1.00.3, which I can’t find online.
