I hope I'm not asking a too pettty of a question for this list!
We are planning to add a 3 rd EXP300 array to out current server w/
2 EXP300's in place already!
We WILL surpass the 1 TB size, if possible?
A little history:
Linux ptb3 2.2.19 #2 SMP Tue Jul 24 11:53:29 CDT 2001 i686 unknown
I have two IBM EXP300 RAID arrays connected to a Netfinity 4500R running
Redhat Linux 6.2.
LVM compiled into kernel AFAIK...w/ patch?
We are using:
lvm_0.9.1_beta7
reiserfsprogs-3.x.0j
Here is the current filesystem and size:
/dev/exp300_2/exp300_lv2 924160464 891307744 32852720 97% /files1
Just wondering about this faq:
Q:
Why are my logical volumes limited to 256 GB in size?
A:
This is NO absolute limit but it depends on the physical extent size you
configured at volume group
creation time.
Please use option -s of the vgcreate command to give a larger physical
extent size. For example with a
physical extent size of 524288 KB (512 MB) you are able to map a logical
volume of 32 Terabyte.
Remember that current Linux kernels are limited to 1 Terabyte.
***Especially about the part in bold!
Please let me know if you need more details, I will supply asap!
TIA!
