I wasn't paying attention, and now I have a RAID with a name similar to that of the boot partition. I'd like to name rename the RAID set to a name that reflects the partition name. E.g. If the file system is mounted as /Users I want to name the RAID set User_Raid
Now in normal circumstances, the only time I have to worry about this is either using Disk Utility or
Here's an example: The RAID set name is SSD_System,(Red annotations) which is the same as the boot disk (Green) and which is not the same as the raid's mount point which is User_Raid (Blue)
Is there a way to rename the RAID set after creation? (Yes, I can change the boot disk name. May do that yet.)
diskutil
. But both commands are moderately complex, and the consequences of a mistake severe, so having a naming convention that makes it clear what disk is associated with what RAID set and what file system helps a bunch.
