I dont think that will work using FS labels, unless you hack the hotplug scripts. I'd call the filesystems dana and dana-m or something. Alternativly you could set them up as a software RAID1 mirror, and label the mirrors volume, then it will happen automatically. No good if you deliberatly want to stagger the updates though. - Steve
