We're talking about something more automatic than "echo
scsi-add-single-device [...]", I surmise, from this? It works fine with me
and RAID1, and I don't think it would be hard to put up a framework for
making it better. Of course, you need to prepare the other disk for the
RAID, but I usually keep some pre-mkraided around handy.
I wonder how much of this could be improved with the current codebase.
