I am using the PERC Raid Controller with Hardware RAID not Software
RAID. The drive I want cloned is / made from a hardware mirrored raid
of 9GB SCSI's. Both machines are already setup with the RAID in the
controller bios. When I boot to load linux all I see is a single 9GB
drive on both machines known as /dev/sda and partitions into sda1 for
/boot sda2 for / and sda3 for swap. Since this is at the hardware level
on both machines are your suggestions still relavant? I don't really
even care about my /home directory on sdb for now, but those are also
hardware RAID5 seen as a single 205GB drive on one machine partitioned
into sdb1 /home, and a single 54GB drive on the other machine with the
same partitions scheme. Everything is ext3.
