Hi, What is stripe width? The lustre manual says, <stripe_width> = <chunk_size> * ( <disks> - <parity_disks> ) <=1 MB. I am completely new to this field and I was looking for some RAID documentation online. Some people have mentioned that stripe width is the number of parallel stripes that can be written to or read from simultaneously - this equals number of disks in an array. Some thing is wrong with my understanding or interpretation of stripe width. Any elaboration on this and also on MTF and repair time calculation given in the manual? Any good guide on RAID?
Thanks, CS. _______________________________________________ Lustre-discuss mailing list Lustre-discuss@lists.lustre.org http://lists.lustre.org/mailman/listinfo/lustre-discuss
