  • rhevh install fails with Dell raid controller

    Posted on

    I tried several permutations of RAID settings on my server,

    and in every case the installation would complete, but the

    server would not be able to boot.

     

    I expected to see a disk option for my RAID 1 logical drive,

    but it did not show up in the list.  Rather there were /dev/mapper

    paths to each of the individual drives.  I tried using RAID 1

    with two drives, RAID 0 with one drive, and then deleting all

    logical drives on the RAID controller.  No joy.

     

    Here is the output of lspci -v for the controller.
