The setup in the first example protects you against failure of a complete controller. The second configuration leaves you open significantly because you only need to loose 2 disks before your data is toast.
Aside from that, stripes so large suffer in terms of performance. Keep your stripes small and distributed across the total number of controllers. benr. This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
