Hi

Not in the GUI, but you can use:

cat /proc/mdstat

to view the mirroring stats…

But still a VERY bad idea…
This means you intend to install a NethServer directly, not as a VM!
Nowadays, one doesn’t install “real” servers anymore. You install well protected VMs, on a solid Hypervisor.

All my 30 clients run their NethServer with AD, file, print, NextCloud & Zabbix as a VM on Proxmox.
Proxmox includes complete Backup, even for Windows, no need for third party stuff like Veeam…

My 2 cents

Hi

Raid on Raid works very badly, no matter if using VMWare ESXi, Microsoft HyperV, Xen or Proxmox…

It eats up too many resources…

Not only that, it’s pointless and counterproductive.
