Hello everybody, I’d like to ask
something that you may find stupid. Certainly the author of the code (Arjan van de Ven, that I warmly thank by the way) could answer this, although
other may also know the answer. I
have read the code of the “ataraid”
project, and I would like you to check my understanding of it. We
could say that it offers a *software*
RAID layer, compatible both with the Promise and the HighPoint
hardware RAID implementations. But it does not make use of those hardware
implementations. It works
roughly like this : - it offers the required interface for managing a new “ataraid” block device - it translates requests on this “ataraid”
block device queue into ide (ATA) requests to the
disks composing the array. Is
this right ? Thanks
for your answers. |
