My setup may be defaulting to raid configured by way of the raid cookbook.
In the chef server web console I see in default.rb:
default[:raid][:debug]=true
default[:raid][:enable]=true
And in raid-configure.rb:
raid_enable = node[:raid][:enable] & @@centos & !@@is_admin
log("BEGIN raid-configure enabled=#{raid_enable}") {level :info}
I'm assuming the raid setup actually happens during the centos
pre-install node prep state. Therefore centos and "not admin node"
would always be true. If the leaving the RAID value set to "[Not Set]"
in the deploy script falls through to having the enabled=true default,
then I think there's no way to avoid getting raid.
This would mean trying to get raid-configure to not run by leaving raid
"not set" in the deployer and also removing the node from the default
proposal for raid won't work. Is that a reasonable conclusion?
Looking further.
