If the IBM is doing hardware RAID1, then the two drives will appear
as a single drive to RHEL. In other words, RHEL should only see
/dev/hda, which is the RAID1 representation of the two physical drives.
If it's still showing up as two drives (/dev/hda and /dev/hdb), then
the RAID1 isn't set up properly at the BIOS level and you need to fix
that. When you create the RAID1, the BIOS should take a quite a while
to build the RAID volume. It generally isn't instantaneous.
