Subject: mdadm: bitmap size
Date: Fri, 19 May 2006 01:19:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <446D0119.1010508@phx6a.ath.cx> (raw)

Hi all, i have this problem:

I am going to do raid 1 over two virtual devices. These virtual devices 
are two hard disks situated on other two servers.

The problem is:
A network failure could happen often, and if it happen, i don't want to 
recover all the disks. I want to recover just last changed things.

As i can see the bitmap do exactly this, but the default bitmap is too 
small!
There is no problem to have a bitmap file of 1 Gb, but i can't find the 
way to tell to mdadm the size to use for the bitmap file.

Thanks,
Stefano.
