1. How to mount RAID after boot from USB stick?
a. detect multiple paths to devices for fail-over or performance reasons and coalesces them
[root@localhost ~]#Multipath
b. scan all disks for volume groups and rebuild caches
[root@localhost ~]#vgscanc. active the VG (In other words, makes the logical volumes known/unknown to the kernel)
[root@localhost ~]#vgchange -a yd. create the mount point
[root@localhost ~]#mkdir -p /var/mnt/local/localimg-cla-0
[root@localhost ~]#mkdir -p /var/mnt/local/localimg-cla-1e. Assemble a pre-existing array
[root@localhost ~]#mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/VG_63/localimg_CLA-0
[root@localhost ~]#mdadm -A /dev/md1 /dev/VG_63/localimg_CLA-1f. mount the RAID
[root@localhost ~]#mount /dev/md0 /var/mnt/local/localimg-cla-0
[root@localhost ~]#mount /dev/md1 /var/mnt/local/localimg-cla-1g. check the filesystem usage
[root@localhost ~]# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 1037484 320648 716836 31% /

2. Create RAID with one LVs
[root@localhost ~]#mdadm -C -a -v -l1 --force -n1 /dev/md0 /dev/VG_63/localimg_CLA-0
[root@localhost ~]#mdadm -C -a -v -l1 --force -n1 /dev/md1 /dev/VG_63/localimg_CLA-1
