In case someone else here wants to build a larger IDE software raid5 in the near
future, here is what works for me very well right now:
- single processor P3
- 4 or more IBM IDE drives (I use 4)
- linux 2.2.13pre15 (but probably better: 2.2.13final)
- the raid 2.2.11 patch (just press enter a fe

Hardware raid is most likely easier, and therefore better for a quick solution. Also
easier to boot from.
I don´t have any experience with hardware raid however.
For stability there is most likely no difference.
Hot swap may pose some hardware-related difficulties with software raid.

have you tried this? I haven't done anything with nbd, but I would expect
the following to happen:
* primary server comes up again
*
Where can the new version of FDISK be found at?

Anybody know of any disk rate monitoring software out there that will
monitor disk ios and disk transfer rates on Linux systems? On another
os, I have a monitor program that records the following information:

hello,
i have a little question,
i made a mirror of a lokal 'disk' over nbd (net block device) to a
second server.
if the first server goes down (failed) the second server mounts the
mirrored 'disk' localy (after fsck) and starts the service (e.g.
mailservice, samba homedirs..) ..
everything w
You're OK...there's a newer version of fdisk which recognizes this new
partition type.

At the moment I can offer you the Bonnie results on a single
Seagate Cheetah drive attached to an integrated AIC-7890 LVD
controller.
I think the possible differences between 512 o 2000 Mb file size,
should be shown in a similar way through the results on this single
disk.
512Mb file size:
Hi all. I recall a few weeks ago someone sent me a link to a patch for
2.2.12, but I've lost that email. Is there an official patch for 2.2.12
yet?
Thanks,

Hello,
I have currently returned the card because of something wrong with
the battery backup memory.
As soon as I receive the replacement (one or two weeks),
I'll perform the test you tell, and send the results to the list.
Bye

I don't think many would agree with you on this :)
Could you print out runs with -s 512 and -s 2000, please?

The machine has 512 Mb RAM and the Bonnie file size 512 Mb.
No cache advantage involved.

Hello raiders,
This is just to tell that with almost the same configuration
which has been described (Mylex Extremeraid, 4 Cheetahs of third
generation), the only difference being that I use raid 0 and the
system is a Dell Poweredge 6300 with two PIII Xeon-500Mhz,

I've had a disk failure or two. The only problem I had was the SCSI
timeouts with an AIC7890. The system would lock up waiting on the SCSI i/o,
but a reboot would always recover and come up with 2 out of 3.
Here's a script I use for watching status (forget where I got it from).
