Unfortunately, that didn't work.

cluster6 root # lvcreate -Cn -i4 -I16 -l3560 -nstorage group
  Insufficient allocatable extents suitable for parallel use for logical
volume storage: 3560 required
cluster6 root # lvcreate -i4 -I16 -l3560 -nstorage group
  Insufficient allocatable extents suitable for parallel use for logical
volume storage: 3560 required

Any other suggestions?

Tyler

I had a similar problem.

I fixed it by turning off contiguous
  http://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-lvm/2004-April/msg00050.html

Can't say anyone was particularly helpful about enlightening me <shrug>  :)

Maybe you could create a non-striped contiguous over a  striped md array?
