Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2003 10:02:10 -0500 Sender: linux-raid-owner@vger.kernel.org Message-ID: <3EE74472.9010505@geodev.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: To: linux-raid@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-raid.ids Hello everyone, In the interest of keeping around some otherwise-functional Sparcs, I was asked if it would be possible to move a linux md raid set from an Intel box to a Sun box. I said, "Sure," and then immediately wondered about byte ordering -- will this work? Take the SCSI box off of the intel, plug it into the sparc, and try to run the array... Then my next thought was that someone here would know the answer. :) Thanks! -- Matthew Mitchell Systems Programmer/Administrator matthew@geodev.com Geophysical Development Corporation phone 713 782 1234 1 Riverway Suite 2100, Houston, TX 77056 fax 713 782 1829
