Description of problem: While trying to create a RAID-1 array device from fixed sized RAID partitions received this error. Only RAID0 arrays can contain grow able members. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install F17 from DVD. 2. Try to create RAID-1 array. 3. Actual results: See error. Expected results: Able to create RAID-1 array. Additional info:
I just did the following: - Boot with two disks. - Enter custom partitioning. - Clear both disks completely. - Create a RAID partition of fixed size 4000M on vda. - Create a RAID partition of fixed size 4000M on vdb. - Create a RAID1 array using the two aforementioned partitions with an ext4 fs mounted as the root fs. It worked as expected. Please attach the logs from your failed attempt: /tmp/anaconda.log /tmp/storage.log Thanks.
Just went back through and found that my spare partition was not set as fixed. Once I changed it to fixed then the raid device got created. Sorry for the noise. Closing bug.
