RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Yaniv Kaul 2010-10-11 13:58:19 UTC 
Description of problem:
When I'm trying to create a soft RAID partition, all disks are checked by default. I need to manually un-check all but the one that I want the soft raid on.
Then I'm selecting the next disk - same issue again. And the next disk...

Either:
- When selecting a soft raid do not select all disks
or better yet:
- Allow just to create soft raid on all selected disks.

Once 'software RAID' is selected - all drives are checked. This would have been great if it could actually do this - create a software RAID file system on all checked drives. If it can't, then it should uncheck all of them and check only the relevant one. (note - when you have many drives, as you would have for RAID, the list is bigger, and it's makes it much more inconvenient - you have to scroll down and uncheck the hidden ones). You need to do this for every drive separately.
