Subject: raid0 + raid1 question
Date: Wed, 08 Oct 2003 15:53:19 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F84793F.6060400@siue.edu> (raw)
I have 7 disks in an x86 box. I want to have 2 raid0's (concatenations)
of 3 disks each. Then I want to raid1 (mirror) the raid0's. This
leaves 1 disk for the OS.
Is it possible to remove one of the raid0's (concatenation of 3 disks)
from the raid1 (mirror)?
I need to perform a backup while a highly visible application continues
to run. Currently I am using Disksuite on a Solaris 8/SPARC platform
with the afore mentioned configuration. First the mirror is broken and
half of the mirror is mounted as another filesystem while the
application continues to run on the other half of the mirror. The
backup is performed and then the mirror is resync'ed. However, I want
to move to x86 and linux and need to know if the same is possible and
how to do it. Does anyone have any experience / advise?
