[PATCH RFC] dm-raid1: keep writing after leg failure

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently if there is a leg failure, the bio will be put into the hold
list until userspace replace/remove the leg. Here we are trying to make
dm-raid1 ignore the failure and keep the following bios going on.
This is because there maybe a temporary path failure in clvmd
which leads to cluster raid1 remove/replace the fake device failure. And
it takes a long time to do the full sync if we readd the device back.
