EVMS is using Device Mapper(DM). MD will resync RAID'S in parallel if it thinks they are on different devices, and sequentially if it thinks they're on the same device. In 2.6 kernel MD probably thinks that none of the DM devices are on the same physical disks , that's probably why it resyncs all of them in parallel. In kernel 2.4, MD thinks that all DM devices are on the same physical disk and it resyncs them sequentially. Regards, -- Susmitha Jasti Software Engineer Trustix OS DDT – C.O.M.O.D.O.
