Are there any plans to have a utility as in Solaris (Disksuite) where
metastat can output the config format so that the equivalent of raidtab
can be updated...
That was indeed one of the suggestions I made ...
As there was no immediate interest im a kosher "superblock" command,
I HACKed
Hi all,
I'm working on linux HA. At the moment I've got something like this:
---

[ # 1 ] [ # 2 ]

Let's descibe it:
Yeah, except I made 2 typos
for "I downloaded 2.0.0, plus the patches" read "I downloaded 2.2.0, plus
the patches"
and for "patch -p0" read "patch -p0 " ie:-
"patch -p0 raid0145-19990309-2.2.3"

If I create a single disk mirror, then raidhotadd a second disk, it tries to
resync, but gets nowhere, blocks all other md re-sync's, make the load average
make the machine look busy (it is actually idle), and means that any "sync"

Since it's nonpersistent, it can only be re-created. The 'old' mdadd+mdrun

The best reason I can think of for 2-disk RAID5 is upgrading a 1-disk setup
to 3-disk:
#1 - RAID5 the two new disks (3-disk setup -- 2 running)
#2 - Copy the old disk to the new RAID5
#3 - raidhotadd the old disk
I've done this twice now but had to use a tape drive to backup first. Mind
you,

Ahh -- which "raidstart" does not do ... right ...
The 'old' mdadd+mdrun was always re-creating arrays as well.
So that has to be used ... [ but cannot share a /etc/raidtab :-( ]
raidstart (and autostart) starts only 'persistent'

Hi everyone, let me introduce myself. My name is John Sinnott and I am a
system/network/database administrator. The boxes at the company where I
work have been primarily NT, but we are starting to phase in some Linux
boxes. My experience with Linux is somewhat limited.
I have just finished

SGI has been making some very linux-friendly noises recently, so maybe
this is a possibility. I certainly hope so. However, right now there

Is the dtfs code usable to you at all?

I've recently had a chance to set up some root mirroring under Solaris (v2.6
7)
using DiskSuite. In Sun's setup they have to specify a partition (small one
like
8-10mb) for a metatable database to help point to partitions to boot from as
well
as general mapping information.
