Subject: RAID5 write hole?
Date: Sat, 26 Jun 2010 22:31:25 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100626143125.GA1010@localhost> (raw)
Hi:
Recently I heard of the so called "write hole" problem of raid5 in
Linux software raid. I use ext4 filesystem on my NAS, which assembles
data disks using Linux software raid. So I wonder how safe my such
system!
If the "write hole" is inevitable, will it result in the corruption of
ext4 filesystem?
