Not to cross the line of "non expensive hardware" seems like a good idea to me. But if iSCSI, why not DRBD, AoE and NBD? In LPIC1, a student should have "Knowledge of basic features of LVM". I think, in LPIC2 "Knowledge of basic features of iSCSI, DRBD, AoE and NBD" would be sufficient. I'd avoid to ask for specific tools here. So, that's my proposal: ==== 204.2 Adjusting Storage Device Access (weight: 2) ==== '''Weight''' 2 '''Description''' Candidates should be able to configure kernel options to support various drives. This objective includes software tools to view & modify hard disk settings. Also included is a basic knowledge of linux network storage device features like iSCSI, DRBD, AoE and NBD. '''Key Knowledge Areas:''' * Tools and utilities to configure DMA for IDE devices including ATAPI and SATA * Tools and utilities to manipulate or analyze system resources (e.g. interrupts) * Awareness of sdparm command and its uses * basic knowledge of linux network storage device features like iSCSI, DRBD, AoE and NBD '''The following is a partial list of the used files, terms and utilities:''' * hdparm, sdparm * tune2fs * sysctl * /dev/hd* & /dev/sd* <br /> Ingo -- Linuxhotel GmbH, Geschäftsführer Dipl.-Ing.
