mdadm is the most common raid management software nowadays.

$ mdadm --run /dev/md0

will start up the first raid device that you have already configured.

$ mdadm --create --level 5 --size 10000000 --raid-devices 3 /dev/hd[abc]1

will create a new raid device for you made up of partitions hda1, hdb1,
hdc1
