Hi all, during the next days we will get a new RAID-System. We have planned to use it as one bis raid5-"disk". Its possible, to increase the disk space by plugging in (a) new disk(s). We want to use lvm too, because its possibility of making a snapshot. I have two questions to that: - when I "start" a snaptshot, where is lvm using the disk space, which is needed to track down the changes user will made during that time? - Can lvm handle the changing of a disk size? (In our case, lvm will not recognize, that a disk is added, because the RAID-System offers the complete disk space as one big disk, so it seems (from the sight of lvm), that the disk size increases) Is there anywhere a searchable version of the mailing list archive? best regards Ralf Eisinger ------------------- IHS - University of Stuttgart, Germany Pfaffenwaldring 10 70150 Stuttgart Phone: (0049)-711-685-3201 _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://www.sistina.com/lvm/Pages/howto.html
