Storage configuration is a bit comples, it's DRBD replicated storage, on top of it sits clustered LVM and KVMS use logical volumes on top of it. but as I said, overall performance is OK. > > Stefan > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- ------------------------------------- Ing.
