essayez les raidtools-0.90 vous pouvez trouver dans tous les kernel-mirreurs ftp://ftp.fr.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/raid/alpha/ ici vous trouvez les patches pour le kernel le trop actuel et les raidtools. lire Software-RAID.HOWTO/Software-RAID.HOWTO.txt dans les nouvelles raidtools. ludo

I think you meant 'if you're NOT really concerned about performance.' The benchmarks I've seen for array controllers come nowhere near the performance of a software-based array on a simple SMP server. For one thing, the processor on, say, a DPT or ICP RAID controller is nowhere near as powerful

I stand corrected. Most of the benchmarks I was referencing were for dual 300MHz Intel SMP systems or better as dedicated fileservers. I presume there are numerous servers out there that are not lucky enough to only have to serve NFS shares and/or are using non SMP boards with older/slower

Re: partition size limit

1999-09-03 Thread Chris Mauritz
As I mentioned in my original note, the system is a dual PIII-500 system that will be dedicated as a file server. So there is plenty of cpu grunt to service a software RAID. I agree that the performance numbers seem to lean heavily in favour of software RAID over the currently available

Ques: re: RH 6.0 and RAID setup

Hello Everyone, I was wondering if someone could verify that I have to patch the RH 6.0 kernel to correctly configure and setup a RAID 1 array. The reason for my question is because I've setup a RAID 1 array by installing the raidtools 0.90 rpm package only. Out of the box the RH 6.0 seemed to
