You definitely have to use RAID 1. When the disk is first read in the boot 
process, there is no mdm available to put the pieces of the raid5 disks 
together. It is just reading the file system from the first available single 
disk. 

Later in the boot process it gets mounted at /boot/efi and just then the raid 
software is available.

OK, I think that’s worth a bug report against Anaconda! Unfortunately I don’t 
have a 3 disk test equipment here at the moment. 

Would be helpful to know it someone can reproduce the issue or is it specific 
to a special property of the hardware you are using. I suppose, the disk are 
used and already had some data on it. Ist there something special? E.g. had 
they different partitioning schemes?

Obviously you didn’t used the distributed installation media to boot the 
server. How did you create the boot medium?
