LVM2 snapshots questions missing from their FAQ :)
After much searching on Google, a few questions remain open: a. Assuming I can take multiple snapshots of the same volume (I think this was not possible in LVM1), won't it slow down the disks like crazy? If I have a weekly, nightly and a noon snapshots of a volume, I could end up with some write operations becoming a read and four writes per block at the worst case! does that make sense? b. I see that snapshots can only take up space in the same VG as their original volume, so unless I'm careful with sizes and spans, I'm bound to get the snapshots on the same physical disk as the original LV. Is this a major hit on performance as well, or is it negligable in most cases? c. my snapshots will always be RO, and as such I intend to mark them as read-only LVs, but should I also mount them RO? does it matter?

Not much sense, but this is how it is. For a to-be alternative, see Zumastor. I did not try it, but it seems promising. b.

Is this a major hit on performance as well, or is it negligable in most cases? I don't know. But I see no problem having more than one disk in a VG. Simply create a PV on a new disk and add it to the VG. I even think that if you first the master LV to completely fill the VG (that uses e.g. an entire disk/PV) and then add another PV/disk and create snapshots in this VG, you know for certain they'll reside on the added disk/PV, as you seem to want. I can't say it's obvious for me that this will give the highest performance - it might be better to spread master/snapshots some other way (at random or planned). If you do try testing this, it will be nice to see results. c. my snapshots will always be RO, and as such I intend to mark them as read-only LVs, but should I also mount them RO? does it matter? I have no idea. I guess I'd mount them RO anyway, both to be extra safe and e.g. to avoid setting atimes etc. -- Didi = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ira Abramov wrote: XParam - Miki moved to Australia a year ago, is this still an Israeli project? :-) There is a question of how such a list should treat dead projects. Roni has been as active on XParam as Miki (and still lives in Israel, as far as I know). Neither have done much development on it for some time now. Question: what happend to the iglu.org.il site I thought it was too out of focus and out of date, so I did not bring it back up after the server move. I still have it in backup if anyone is interested in salvaging the good stuff from there. The only offer of help I had in that respect was from someone who saw it as an unconditional prerequisite that they: 1. Bring the ENTIRE site back, out of date stuff and all, to exactly the same way it looked before AND 2. They get root access. Since neither conditions were acceptable to me, said person was given sufficient permissions to access the backups, change the site on hamakor.org.il both in the file level and at the Joomla level. Aside from bitching on the mailing lists that they do not have sufficient permissions, no actual constructive work was done, so the site is down pending someone who cares enough to bring it back up. If anyone else is interested in salvaging the information from there, please contact me off list. and why is this list not on a Wiki over there? or on http://www.hamakor.org.il/content/view/52/56/ That is up to Shlomi to answer. He has permissions to edit the page you mention. Last but not least, if we are talking websites, is Hamakor or anyone doing anything about the shameful abuse taking place over at gnu.org.il? it's the same guy who was abusing wordpress.org.il until a week ago. I had a look, and am frankly a bit at a loss as to what to say. I work according to the principle of judge the site, not the person behind it. The site does have SOME useful stuff in it (I don't know where it came from, or whether it was taken with permission). I also did not see any blatant misleading statements of authorization or of being official. As such, I'm not sure there is anything we CAN do. If you find anything on the site that makes the reader believe that it is an official site, or if you wrote one of the translated articles there and you believe your copyright was violated, then Hamakor can help you. Otherwise, it's better to not draw additional traffic there and let it be. Just my humble opinion, of course. You are all free to try and change my mind (or convince other people otherwise).

Re: using ffmpeg to create AVI files for Windows
Hi Shlomo, You're coding Video with XVid and Audio with AAC, and unless the Windows user has both of those codecs installed, he won't be able to watch the video. I assume that he got XVID/DIVX codec installed (if he played movies from the net), but I'm not sure he got AAC codec installed (most of the time they are rarely encoded with AAC, most of the time it's MP3 CBR or VBR), so I suggest you should encode with MP3 encoding. 640x480 resolution is bad resolution, and you should check whats the source aspect-ratio of your original video and calculate the exact resolution you want to encode it to. Unless you're into advanced encoding (H.264, SNOW, Dirac), then I would recommend your friend to install VLC on his windows machine and play the video, it should play it pretty well, specially since VLC mostly has the codecs built with it's install, so codecs issues will probably disappear).

Just my humble opinion, of course. You are all free to try and change my mind (or convince other people otherwise). Ditto. --Amos
Re: Using SSH keys without havint to type a passphrase

Be careful not to override your default key (in case you have one already). Use a separate key for this job. 2. At least on Debian Etch and CentOS 5, there is ssh-copy-id to help you transfer the public key conveniently. 3. Consider adding a command= parameter to the remote authorized_keys2 file to limit the commands which can be executed in case the private key gets stolen. You can also limit the host from which the public key will be accepted using the from= command. See man sshd. --Amos
Re: LVM2 snapshots questions missing from their FAQ :)
On 17/02/2008, Ira Abramov [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: After much searching on Google, a few questions remain open: a. Assuming I can take multiple snapshots of the same volume (I think this was not possible in LVM1), won't it slow down the disks like crazy? If I have a weekly, nightly and a noon snapshots of a volume, I could end up with some write operations becoming a read and four writes per block at the worst case! does that make sense? It appears so. b. I see that snapshots can only take up space in the same VG as their original volume, so unless I'm careful with sizes and spans, I'm bound to get the snapshots on the same physical disk as the original LV. Is this a major hit on performance as well, or is it negligable in most cases? Haven't tried this yet but have you noticed that you can pass a PhysicalVolumePath to lvcreate (see the manual page, and http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Cluster_Logical_Volume_Manager/LV_create.htmlfor more details)? BTW - be aware that, maybe a bit counter-intuitively, once you create a snapshot you can change BOTH the original and the snapshot, maybe by flipping your snapshots carefully you can decrease the amounts of duplicate writes. c. my snapshots will always be RO, and as such I intend to mark them as read-only LVs, but should I also mount them RO? does it matter? I'm pretty sure you'll get a warning a-la read-only device when you try to mount it read/write, similar to what you get when you load a CD-ROM without the -ro flag. Hmm - I wonder whether you can assign a DRBD device as a PV, then get the snapshots sync'ed to another host as well, *wicked laugh*... Please let us know what you found. --Amos
