Full Discussion: Samba share on software raid1

Assuming that you have completed the following steps:
You created a raid1
You partitioned the space that the raid1 provides like any other hard drive
You created a file system in that one of the partitions (xfs or ext4)

Now you can mount that filesystem somewhere:
You create an empty directory. It looks like you have /mnt/raid. In my opinion that would not be a desirable place /mnt is more for temporary mounting of filesystems. To provide a service like samba probably /srv/samba or /var/samba would be better.
After that you can share that space configuring the samba service.

pmdasamba

PMDASAMBA(1)						       Performance Co-Pilot						      PMDASAMBA(1)

NAME

       pmdasamba - Samba performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)

DESCRIPTION

       pmdasamba is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports metric values from Samba, a Windows SMB/CIFS server for UNIX.

       In order for values to be made available by this PMDA, Samba must have been built with profiling support (WITH_PROFILE in "smbd -b"
       output).  This PMDA dynamically enumerates much of its metric hierarchy, based on the contents of "smbstatus --profile".

       When the agent is installed (see below), the Install script will attempt to enable Samba statistics gathering, using "smbcontrol
       --profile".

INSTALLATION

       If you want access to the names and values for the samba performance metrics, do the following as root:

	       # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba
	       # ./Install

       If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:

	       # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba
	       # ./Remove

       pmdasamba is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly.	The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent is
       installed or removed.

FILES

       $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba/Install
	   installation script for the pmdasamba agent

       $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/samba/Remove
	   undo installation script for the pmdasamba agent

       $PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd/samba.log
	   default log file for error messages from pmdasamba

SEE ALSO

       pmcd(1), smbd(1) and samba(7).
