Bug Description

Documentation of fuel / MOS-8 says that RAID-1 spans all disks available on node, and there is a trick to exclude some disks of software raid-1: https://docs.mirantis.com/openstack/fuel/fuel-8.0/operations.html#how-to-exclude-some-drives-from-raid-1-array

Actually it never happens. Fuel-agent Nailgun driver always adds '/boot' volume as regular, even if volume['type'] == 'raid':

https://github.com/openstack/fuel-agent/blob/master/fuel_agent/drivers/nailgun.py#L488-L497

Also current version of fuel does not provide software raid at all by default.

This bug is thoroughly connected with documentation. Starting since 7.0 and higher, Fuel doesn't provision software raid for /boot partition.
