RED HAT 7.1?这是企业版还是以前的
参考下
Linux下使用mdadm创建和管理软raid
注：本次操作以RHEL4为例，但应该可以应用到其它大部分的distro上（guess）。
mdadm的几个常用参数
-C 创建Raid，后面跟参数，代表raid设备的名称。比如：/dev/md0，/dev/md1。
-n 用于创建磁盘阵列的磁盘个数。
-l Raid的级别。
-x 指定用于hotspare（热备盘）的磁盘个数。如果阵列中有一块硬盘坏了，它会立刻顶上，并rebuild；
-D 显示软raid的详细信息；
-s 扫描配置文件（/etc/mdadm.conf）或'/proc/mdstat'来查看遗漏的信息f；
创建软raid的大体流程
使用fdisk工具为新磁盘创建分区；
使用mkfs.XXXX工具将刚才划分好的分区格式化成某种格式的文件系统。比如：ext3，reiserfs等；
使用mdadm来创建软raid；
创建/etc/mdadm.conf文件（注意文件的格式，包括是否有逗号等等。该文件是为了系统在重启后能够自动启用软raid。可以查看/etc/rc.sysinit脚本，搜索'mdadm'字符串就明白了）；
示例：创建软raid5（+hotspare）
以下是我的一次实际操作的完整过程：
这是用'fdisk -l'命令查看到的我当前的磁盘和分区情况（只有/dev/sda在使用，其它四个都是新磁盘，没有分区，没有格式化）：
