Is there a tool to simplify the conversion from a plain partition to one that can be mirrored on the fly? Maybe I've finally found something that is easier in Windows... The reason I ask is that in the huge list of downloadable VMWare appliances at http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/appliances/ there is one called the 'Reflection Virtual Appliance' (http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/appliances/directory/316) that boots a scripted fedora image which presents some iscsi targets and a web server to provide the click by click instructions of what to do on the windows side to convert drives to dynamic, add mirrors, and sync to the iscsi partitions. When the sync is finished, you can shut down the real machine, boot the newly created image and be running on vmware with only the downtime for the reboot. It's such a good idea I'd like to be able to do it from Linux boxes too - and it probably will work easily if the system was built with RAID1. The hard part is the conversion if it wasn't. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
