clearpart --all --initlabel
# Disk partitioning information
part raid.700 --fstype="mdmember" --ondisk=vda --size=1025
part raid.706 --fstype="mdmember" --ondisk=vdb --size=1025
part raid.828 --fstype="mdmember" --ondisk=vda --size=14344
part raid.834 --fstype="mdmember" --ondisk=vdb --size=14344
part swap --fstype="swap" --size=3969
raid /boot --device=boot --fstype="xfs" --level=RAID1 raid.700 raid.706
raid / --device=root --fstype="xfs" --level=RAID1 raid.828 raid.834
3. Perform everything needed for system system upgrade
