dmraid
dmraid discovers block and software RAID devices (eg, ATARAID) by using multiple different metadata format handlers which support various formats (eg, Highpoint 37x series). It offers activating RAID sets made up by 2 or more discovered RAID devices, display properties of devices and sets. See option -l for supported metadata formats. Block device access to activated RAID sets happens through device-mapper nodes /dev/mapper/RaidSetName. RaidSetName starts with the format name (see -l option) which can be used to access all RAID sets of a specific format easily with certain options.
