How to configure your Scaleway Dedibox hardware RAID from the console
A hardware RAID is a type of RAID implementation where construction and management of the RAID is performed on dedicated hardware, independently of the operating system.
The logical disks of the RAID array are managed by a physical controller, sitting on the PCI bus, which presents only the logical volumes to the operating system. The RAID controller manages the RAID using its own CPU and RAM, without delegating tasks to the main CPU of the machine.
Before you start
To complete the actions presented below, you must have:
- A Dedibox account
- A Dedibox server with hardware RAID controller
- Log in to the Scaleway Dedibox console.
- Click Server > Server list to view a list of available servers in your account.
- Select the server to install and click Manage.
- Click RAID configuration in the menu.
- Choose the RAID level for the server from the drop-down list.
- Reinstall the operating system from the console.
