Many thanks, Stephen,
The mke2fs -b4096 process have completed on the 2 RAID sets.
I can now see the 2 x 4.0TB ext3 file systems.
Many thanks for this suggestion.
Peter

Peter,
There isn't a RHEL4-AS-U1 channel explicitly declared under RHN. As
RHEL4-U1 has been released the main rhel-{arch}-as-4 channels now
include all of the updated packages that ship as part of U1.

A basic overview of the changes between U0 and U1 can be found in the
release notes (this does include a list of packages that were upgraded)
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/release-note
s/as-amd64/RELEASE-NOTES-U1-x86_64-en.html

This indicates that you are running the pre-U1 kernel. U1 is shipped
with
2.6.9-11.EL.smp. It's worth checking that 2.6.9-11 is present in the
output of rpm -q kernel and if so it seems likely that you simply
need a reboot. Check at boot up to see if 2.6.9-11 is (a) present in
the
grub menu and if it is (b) is it the default.
Regards,
Stephen
