本文是记录在服务器上通过Soft RAID实现合并多块磁盘组建大存储的操作步骤。构建的RAID是RAID10同时设置一块hot spare磁盘，以满足一定的容灾和性能要求。

硬件设备检查

lspci | grep -E 'SCSI|SATA'

显示磁盘硬件如下

00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation Patsburg 6-Port SATA AHCI Controller (rev 06)
03:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS2308 PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS-2 (rev 05)
09:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller: Intel Corporation Patsburg 4-Port SATA Storage Control Unit (rev 06)

服务器只有SATA ACHI磁盘控制器，没有硬件RAID功能

磁盘列表

fdisk -l | grep sd

  • 创建磁盘分区并标记为soft raid

以/dev/sdb为例

parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart primary 0% 100%
parted -s /dev/sdb set 1 raid on

对于上述sdb到sdl磁盘，可以使用以下命令一次完成

for i in {b..l};do (parted -s /dev/sd$i mkpart primary 0% 100% && parted -s /dev/sd$i set 1 raid on);done

上述对磁盘进行分区并且加上raid这个FLAG很重要，我的同事在做Soft RAID的时候，操作命令中少了这步分区和设置flag步骤，虽然构建RAID时候没有报错，并且也能够对RAID设备进行文件系统创建。但是操作系统重启后，md设备丢失（无法挂载文件系统）。推测是没有标记raid分区，系统重启后就无法扫描到RAID标记来激活md设备。

此外，我发现这里使用 parted 命令有没有使用 -a optimal 都没有区别，分区以后显示都是相同位置，不确定在底层是否需要这个参数。或许还是加上比较好。注意，可以使用以下命令检查分区是否对齐:

parted /dev/sda
align-check opt n
  • 创建RAID10

这里 /dev/sd{b..k}1 是shell展开为 /dev/sdb1 到 /dev/sdk1

mdadm --create /dev/md0 --name=metadata --level=10 --raid-devices=10 /dev/sd{b..k}1 --spare-devices=1 /dev/sdl1

这里使用参数 --name=metadata 可以体现在mdadm --detail信息输出以及/etc/mdadm.conf配置中，方便后续维护

-N, --name=
  Set a name for the array.  This is currently only effective when creating an
  array with a version-1 superblock, or an array in a DDF container.  The name
  is  a  simple  textual  string that can be used to identify array components
  when assembling.  If name is needed but not specified, it is taken from  the
  basename   of  the  device  that  is  being  created.   e.g.  when  creating
  /dev/md/home the name will default to home.

在suse 文档：创建复杂 RAID 10 使用了以下参数

  • --run 强制运行，对于某些属于其他array的组件也确认执行，由于我们是空白的存储，所以不需要这个参数

  • --chunk=4 （也就是4k的条带大小），这个对性能有比较大的影响，以后需要调优

    -R, --run Insist that mdadm run the array, even if some of the components appear to be active in another array or filesystem. Normally mdadm will ask for confir- mation before including such components in an array. This option causes that question to be suppressed.

    -c, --chunk= Specify chunk size of kibibytes. The default when creating an array is 512KB. To ensure compatibility with earlier versions, the default when Building and array with no persistent metadata is 64KB. This is only mean- ingful for RAID0, RAID4, RAID5, RAID6, and RAID10.

    RAID4, RAID5, RAID6, and RAID10 require the chunk size to be a power  of  2.
In any case it must be a multiple of 4KB.

A  suffix  of  'M'  or  'G'  can be given to indicate Megabytes or Gigabytes
respectively.

  • 检查RAID配置

      mdadm --detail /dev/md0

输出显示如下

      10       8      177        -      spare   /dev/sdl1

  • 生成mdadm的配置文件，这样系统启动时候回自动启动软raid

    mdadm -Ds >> /etc/mdadm.conf

或者等同命令

mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm.conf
  • 检查RAID的build进度

SoftRAID在sync的时候就可以直接使用（创建文件系统和挂载），即使此时显示正在进行resync还没有完成

cat /proc/mdstat

输出类似

Personalities : [raid10]
md0 : active raid10 sdl1[10](S) sdk1[9] sdj1[8] sdi1[7] sdh1[6] sdg1[5] sdf1[4] sde1[3] sdd1[2] sdc1[1] sdb1[0]
      2344240640 blocks super 1.2 512K chunks 2 near-copies [10/10] [UUUUUUUUUU]
      [=>...................]  resync =  8.4% (198401920/2344240640) finish=173.2min speed=206451K/sec

创建文件系统并挂载

  • /dev/md0磁盘分区

由于/dev/md0磁盘设备大于2T，所以不能使用fdisk，需要使用parted分区并设置为GPT分区表

parted -s /dev/md0 mklabel gpt
parted -a optimal -s /dev/md0 mkpart primary 1% 100%

分区对齐方式

-a alignment-type, --align alignment-type
    Set alignment for newly created partitions, valid alignment types are:
    none   Use the minimum alignment allowed by the disk type.
    
  cylinder
    Align partitions to cylinders.
    
  minimal
    Use minimum alignment as given by the disk topology information. This
    and the opt value will use layout information provided by the disk to
    align the logical partition table addresses to actual physical blocks
    on  the disks.  The min value is the minimum aligment needed to align
    the partition properly to physical blocks, which  avoids  performance
    degradation.
    
  optimal
    Use optimum alignment as given by the disk topology information. This
    aligns to a multiple of the physical block size in a way that guaran-
    tees optimal performance.

使用fdisk -l可以看到分区信息

WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/md0'! The util fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted.

注意：这里提示GPT分区不是物理扇区边界开始，这个警告可能不正确

  • /dev/md0p1创建文件系统ext4

ext4文件系统目前对SSD磁盘支持较好，并且稳定可靠

mkfs -t ext4 /dev/md0p1
  • 挂载 /dev/md0p1

由于是Ext4分区性能提升，使用noatime

echo "/dev/md0p1  /metadata  ext4  defaults,noatime  0 0" >> /etc/fstab

原先对/metadata目录需要移除，重建空目录挂载

mv /metadata /metadata.old
mkdir /metadata
mount /metadata

简单汇总脚本

for i in {b..l};do (parted -s /dev/sd$i mkpart primary 0% 100% && parted -s /dev/sd$i set 1 raid on);done
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --name=metadata --level=10 --raid-devices=10 /dev/sd{b..k}1 --spare-devices=1 /dev/sdl1
mdadm -Ds >> /etc/mdadm.conf
parted -s /dev/md0 mklabel gpt
parted -a optimal -s /dev/md0 mkpart primary 0% 100%
mkfs -t ext4 /dev/md0p1
echo "/dev/md0p1  /metadata  ext4  defaults,noatime  0 0" >> /etc/fstab
mv /metadata /metadata.old
mkdir /metadata
mount /metadata

通过LVM实现Soft RAID

LVM可以实现Soft RAID的功能，但是要求较新版本（参考 ⁠4.4.16. RAID Logical Volumes 和 ⁠4.4.3. Creating Mirrored Volumes）

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3开始 LVM 支持 RAID4/5/6 和 raid1

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4开始 LVM 支持 raid10

为了稳妥起见，应该升级到RHEL最新 6.7 版本，以便能够实现LVM下的Soft RAID。

使用LVM实现RAID注意点：

  • 新的raid1在每个镜像磁盘保存了完成的冗余位图（fully redundant bitmap），增加了故障处理能力
  • 镜像可以临时分裂然后再合并回RAID
  • 新的镜像实现支持快照（类似高层次的RAID实现）
  • 新的RAID实现不支持cluster-aware
