Hello, I got my own equipment, but all the same that you guys sell and I’m wondering about the RAID? Is there any bios settings I need to change? I can’t get past partitioning because it says I have 2 disks… Do I just install on one?
Hi @ggwill0, and welcome to our community forum!!
I’m afraid we at the team have not played around with setting RAID partitions.
Maybe some hardware enthusiast here like @luis , who uses unRAID, and @rbrogan who set a RAID 0 may advice on this if they are soooo kind
I read the dappnode extreme specs and it classifies that it comes with two 2 TB SSD. So how does it work in the pre-built machines?
i also have two SSDs. i partitioned one of them in the setup and i can see the root, boot and efi in the /etc/fstab file for that NVME.
EDIT: i was able to partition the other SSD without hurting the main disk using pcreate, vgcreate and lvcreate. i can now mount it and use it for storage. i might use it to hold my geth block database
It would be REALLY helpful if the installation instructions included setup for optional software raid and LVM configuration. I also have two SSDs and would like to run RAID 1 but am completely lost trying to figure how to set it up.
Feel free to open an issue on GitHub if this is a feature request.
I did almost the same thing as you did but I couldn’t get the OpenEthereum to use that new storage as it is in a docker container. I think that when I changed the location of the chain and base directory it was only in the docker container (I changed the location by adding --db-path in the env variables). Do you know how I could make the node actually use the storage outside its container?
EDIT: I did not know you could expand storage with LVM. You can ignore my question.
