Hi, |

Never tried this myself but I think you should have no problems with |
21 |
mdadm. AFAIK JBOD is called "linear mode" in kernel and mdadm terms. |
22 |
Given that you have compiled the necessary modules you'll have to do |
23 |
something like: |
24 |
|
25 |
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=linear --raid-devices=2 /dev/sd{a,b}1 |
26 |
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=mirror --raid-devices=2 /dev/{md0,sdc} |
