entreprise card. (it was planed to be done around 22-23h pm today)

It is configured ad RAID1 by default, you see only one big hard disk.

You have 2 way to achive what you want :
- setup with web access a mdv2010.1 without lvm on the hw card
- re-setup completely the raid from bios, then install with a live-cd through 
network using the kvm+virtual media. (you need to do a dummy install first + 
wait tomorow for that)

Ipmi isn't accessible publicly (reboot feature and virtual kvm is avaible in 
online web interface).
