viewing raid


I just installed redhat Professional WS, and i (think i) configured raid1. I have 2 harddrives. When i do a df -a, i get:

Code:
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/md0              77649080   2211788  71492940   4% /
none                         0         0         0   -  /proc
usbdevfs                     0         0         0   -  /proc/bus/usb
/dev/hda1               101089      9203     86667  10% /boot
none                         0         0         0   -  /dev/pts
none                    256736         0    256736   0% /dev/shm
/dev/md0 is where i told it to mount the raid device.

this is my fdisk -l:

Code:
Disk /dev/hda: 81.9 GB, 81964302336 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9964 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
 
   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *         1        13    104391   83  Linux
/dev/hda2           144      9964  78887182+  fd  Linux raid autodetect
/dev/hda3            14       143   1044225   82  Linux swap
 
Partition table entries are not in disk order
 
Disk /dev/hdb: 81.9 GB, 81964302336 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9964 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
 
   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hdb1   *         1      9964  80035798+  fd  Linux raid autodetect
How can i see whats on there? I wan tto see if it did everything correctly to ensure i have a working mirror.

how can i do this?

Look a /proc/mdstat . This ought to let you know the status of the mirrors and a bunch of other information. Good Luck!
