Hi,
Got a quick question. I just bought a 120GB hard drive for my system. I am
currently running lvm-1.0.6, but I am also considering upgrading to lvm2.
Right now, I have the following:
hda Maxtor 30GB
hdb LG DVD ROM
hdc Maxtor 30GB
hdd LG CD-RW
hde WD 30GB
The 30GB drive on hde (on the on-board Promise PDC20265 controller) locks the
system when I boot with the drive connected. Not sure if it is a bad drive or
some idiosyncracy with the controller. Now I have been told that you take a
pretty severe performance hit on the controller with a drive and a CD on the
same chain. So what I am thinking i
s
hda Maxtor 30GB
hdb Maxtor 30GB
hdc WD 120GB
hdd WD 30GB
hde DVD ROM
hdf CD-RW
or
hdg CD-RW
What would be the best drive configuration and upgrade path to lvm2? I'm
particularly concerned about scattering the drives to the wind and "losing"
them to lvm or having a lot of bogus lvm data floating around that I can't
get rid of.
Thoughts?
