So I tried again with our RAID manually configured: 2 OS drives @ 300GB in RAID1 12 "data" drives @ 3TB in RAID0
This time I left the RAID selection undefined in the deployer menu and also removed the new node from the raid barclamp's default proposal. Then I allocated the node. It appears crowbar still took the node through a raid configuration step though. The node detail view indicates that the machine now has 1 drive in RAID10. Inspecting the system configuration confirms this. So how do get Crowbar to skip the RAID set up step. From what I've read this should be possible to handle cases where the RAID controller is unsupported. ~jpr On 05/01/2014 11:37 AM, John-Paul Robinson wrote: > I'm trying to deploy a new storage server for which I want to leave our > manual raid configuration in place. > > In order to accomplish that do I simply avoid setting a RAID type in the > deployer configuration page before allocating the node? > > I had tried to accomplish this by editing the RAID proposal to not > include my new node, but then I still set the RAID value to JBOD in the > deployer ui (I wasn't able to unset it after selecting it).
