Hi, Some time ago I did some (non-extensive) tests and I didn't like what I saw. It seemed LVM wouldn't warn when a RAID1 had a failed disk, LV seemed to behave wrongly and so on. If your environment allows it, I recommend to use mdraid, even if your have to do it on different PV LVs; althou

Hello, has anyone tried LVM mirror for storage HA? We managed to get mirror running with two iSCSI disks, but when one of devices goes offline, test VM acting strange. Sometimes it _may_ work after one disk failure and connection recovery, but more common result is VM going to zombie state. In that
