Re: [CentOS] isw_xxxxxxxx missing?

Hi all, I've installed CentOS 5.2 on a sun x2250. The installer goes fine and I can setup my root with lvm on /dev/ mapper/isw_xxxxxxxx_Volume0, that is the hardware RAID1 for two disks available. As the system boots lvm complains of a duplicate PV and decides to use /dev/sda, so the physical disk, not the raid device... I see with surprise that the raid device is missing! Needless to say, in a couple of days and reboots I've completely messed up the filesystem and the bootloader... Is there a way to fix this?

Yea. It's probably an Intel fake raid. Get rid of it and use Linux software raid instead.

HTH
