Hardware RAID and DSS Lite

Symptom: Is it possible to use a hardware RAID controller with DSS Lite

Problem: If your total drive capacity is over 1TB DSS lite will not work

Solution: I  tested with an Areca RAID controller (ARC-1110)

I created an RAID set then activated the RAID set with the RAID set function

After that I was able to create a volume group and a logical volume

create my share and use it
