The only problem I can see is that your bitmap is not on a RAID device
so if the disc goes you lose the bitmap. I guess you're accepting the
risk of downtime anyway because your filesystem root is on a non-RAID
device, but while you can (as I think you've said before) replace the
boot disc quickly, you're exposing yourself to a long, slow resync which
will increase your downtime by perhaps days...
Cheers,
John.
