Configuring your Environment for Software RAID
Configuring the Legacy Package Control Script and RAID Configuration File
Chapter 3 75
# specifically calls out its use for multipath.
# If some other multipath mechanism is used (e.g. one built
# into an HBA driver), then references to MD, RAIDTAB, RAIDSTART, etc.
# should be commented out. If the references are in the comments, they
# can be ignored. References to MD devices, such as /dev/md0, should be
# replaced with the appropriate multipath device name.
# For example:
# RAIDTAB="/usr/local/cmcluster/conf/raidtab.sg"
#RAIDTAB=""
# MD (RAID) COMMANDS

# Leave the default (RAIDSTART="raidstart", "RAIDSTOP="raidstop") if you want
# md to be started and stopped with default methods.
RAIDSTART="raidstart -c ${RAIDTAB}"
RAIDSTOP="raidstop -c ${RAIDTAB}"
Creating and Editing the Legacy Package Control
Scripts
After you install the XDC software, you need to create a package control
script and add references to the XDC software to enable Software RAID.

• Edit the value of the DATA_REP variable
• Edit the value of the XDC_CONFIG_FILE to point to the location where
the raid.conf file is placed
• Configure the RAID monitoring service
To Create a Legacy Package Control Script
The procedure to create a package control script for XDC software is
identical to the procedure that you follow to create other package control
scripts.
To create a package control script, run the following command:
