Currently stock 2.2.9 doesnt really work well with RAID1/RAID5 (reason yet
unknown, Doug Ledford is investigating the issue). This could either be
the buffer-cache changes in 2.2.8, or a genuine RAID problem. 2.2.7 (with
the small patch i've sent to this list that resolves a small reject) works
fine with the latest release.
I just upgraded to 2.2.8, and I run two raid1 devices with apparently no
problems. Should I downgrade?
I bought one more disk, so now I have three and plan to switch from rai1 to
raid5. Should I wait for new kernels before doing that?
Are there places where I could look for this info? All web pages I saw are
a little behind the times, the HOWTO has not been completed, and there is
still nowhere I know of for finding comprehensive documentation or news.
Thanks for your prompt response.
