Currently got some HDDs connected in the physical machine via a HBA as JBOD.
When looking to add a new SR in XenServer is there a way to turn these multiple HDDs into a RAID Array rather than individual disks?
Ideally I'd like the option to have a software based RAID array powered by XenServer, but not sure if this is even possible. If not I'll just get this configured at the HBA level as a hardware array but it's always a bit more fiddly to do these things when you need to keep expanding the storage requirements.
