(My apologies if this is already possible and I've missed it, but...)
Are there any plans for the ability to add and remove mirrors on the fly?
I can think of one particular situation where this would be exceptionally
useful. On a busy mail machine, it's difficult to get a static backup of
the contents of /var/spool/mail. If the raid tools supported the ability
to add and remove mirrors on the fly, one could have a redundant (third)
mirror which is detached nightly, mounted as a standalone filesystem
elsewhere, backed up, unmounted, and reattached to the /var/spool/mail
mirror.
The rest of the raid package seems fairly thorough; this is the only
serious feature that I see missing. Or that I just don't see.
