raid device problem

i'm newer for linux,
i used RHEL4.0 in this redhat version i created multiple raid device at a time such as raid0 raid1 raid5 on /dev/md0 /dev/md1 /dev/md2 means many raid md devices availabel.
but now in RHEL5.0 with kernel-2.6.18-8.el5 i create only one raid device any one such as raid0 raid1 raid5,means only one md device availabel in /dev directory the device address is /dev/md0

You have to understand what is RAID 1 2 5 and why u need all in one is there any use. You also dont mention about soft/hard RAID any way i am giving a link to look threw

linux md devices
 
hello
your link is work on installation time (raid implimentation)
but i'm asking about after installation of redhat5.0 when i run this follow ing command..
#mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/hdc{6,7}
now array created on md0 device, but now i want add more raid md device
such as
#mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=5 --raid-devices=3 /dev/hdc{8,9,10}
now giving one error
md1 device is not availabel
but this problem was not with RHEL4.0
in RHEL5.0 only one md0 device is availabel
NOTE:- I'm using soft raid with kernel-2.6.18-8.el5

Have read this : http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_boo...id-config.html
Also, its not clear whether you are trying to extend md0 or add a new raid device, in which case it should be md1, not md0.
