Not necessarily true.

OK, the answer to this question is ... RAID and LVM can be used together, or individually. Thanks for confirming that, though in this case it's a hardware RAID so I wouldn't expect LVM to need to treat it as anything other than big disk. If you have 2 or more drives that are the same in the machine, you can Stripe your LVM. Could you clarify that are the same? The primary point of this excercise is to make the filesystem resizable. It's already impossible to buy exactly the configuration of new hardware that's already attached; we wouldn't want to be limited to adding identical extents every time we expanded the storage. LVM done this way is quite fast ... but obviously you would need to provide another way to protect your data. Presumably using hardware RAIDs as the physical volumes would take care of that.

Re: [CentOS] Seeking pointers to info about LVM migration and performance
On 7/8/07, Johnny Hughes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well ... if you are using hardware RAID, then striping LVM will likely not give you any benefit speed wise. (Unless multiple controllers are used and read/write can be done in parallel). The speed benefit happens if LVM can stripe the sectors to SATA or SCSI drives where simultaneous read/writes can happen. With hardware RAID, the controller normally handles all that, so LVM striping is not normally done. What we have is a hardware RAID enclosure that already has all the drives it can handle, and is approaching capacity. So what we're currently considering is adding an entire additional RAID device and using LVM to combine them into a VG as a pair of SCSI drives. So it appears we could configure them as either striped or linear, and LVM2 would handle growing even a striped configuration if we add a third RAID later. A performance boost from LVM striping would be a bonus, but what I'm really asking is whether there's a penalty for LVM linear. I hadn't considered, though, that we could also rotate larger drives into the existing RAID and then grow the filesystem once they were all upgraded. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
