Hi all,
First of all, I'm new to raid on Linux (or any other OS). I think I have
sufficient experience with linux to set Raid up, but there are some
questions....
I want to use Raid 1 (software raid) om my webserver. I had a hdd crash a
few weeks ago. Backups were available, but the downtime was quit high...
I have read trough the howto's, but I still have some questions.
So here we go:
This is my partition table:
/dev/hda1 /
/dev/hda5 /home
/dev/hda6 /root
/dev/hda7 swap
/dev/hda8 /www
1) Is it possible to have two disks (hda & hdc), having exact copies of
eachother (that means including swap, etc....)?? I read something about
that it was not possible to mirror swapspace .....
2) I'm planning to use kernel 2.2.10. Is raid available & stable for this
kernel? I only found some patches & raidtools for 2.1.x....
Well, that's it for now....
TIA,
Dirk
