Hi I am in the process of rebuilding my server and I am planning my disk usage. I have 2 drives. Traditionally I would do
4 partitions to make up 4 md's md0 /boot ( ~ 500M - I like have space here) sda1 + sdb1 md1 / (~10G) sda2 + sdb2 md2 swap sda3 + sdb3 md3 LVM PV sda4 + sdb4 from the PV I make a VG and then lots of LV's I have used this sort of set for a while, but what I would like to do is not make md3 and instead use sda4 + sdb4 as 2 PV and then I get the chance to decide which pv is made up of mirrored space and which is not. I have some data that I don't really care if it dies/get lost. I can't do that on a lv by lv basis with my original setup. I haven't had much experience with lvm mirrors, should I stick with my original setup or go with the new ? Alex
