…IMSM) If the guest supports it (plucky does but noble does not), we can simulate IMSM RAID devices by using one (or more) SCSI disks. In the guest, you can create an IMSM RAID 0 using: # IMSM_NO_PLATFORM=1 mdadm --create /dev/md/imsm0 -n 1 --metadata=imsm /dev/sda --force # IMSM_NO_PLATFORM=1 mdadm --create /dev/md/raid0_1 -n 1 --level 0 /dev/md/imsm0 --force Or a RAID 1 using: # IMSM_NO_PLATFORM=1 mdadm --create /dev/md/imsm0 -n 2 --metadata=imsm /dev/sda /dev/sdb # IMSM_NO_PLATFORM=1 mdadm --create /dev/md/raid1_1 -n 2 --level 1 /dev/md/imsm0 We already supported SCSI disks but only for multipathing.

RAID 1 is also possible but we need to add support for multiple disks (see #1523)
