about '[gentoo-user] evms':
Trying to set up a new server using evms, but the howto on the gentoo
site seems very old and incomplete.
basically, i've got 3 hot-swappable scsi drives, but no raid
controller.. I want to end up with lvm logical volumes on top of a
software raid-5. but getting there with evms is presenting me some
issues.
In your situation, I'd get rid of evms, it's not needed. Use mdadm to
create a raid5 volume from your 3 drives, then use the command-line lvm
tools to create a pv, vg, and all the lvs you want.
I agree. I tried to use evms and I was not very lucky. I am happily
running lvm on top of raid with mdadm lvm2.
