I would NOT do that. You should like the md layer handle all things raid and let lvm do just volume management. To create a raid1+0 array, you first create the mirrors and then you create a striped array that consists of the mirror devices. There is another raid10 module that does its own thing with regards to 'raid10', is not supported by the installer and does not necessarily behave like raid1+0. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
