Hello, all I'd like to have the drives of my LVM-system (SuSE 8.0) to spin down when the volume is not used (it's a data-volume only, the system resides somewhere else). The volume consists of one partition of hda and drives hdb and hdc are completely dedicated to it. I tried to set a spindown-time in BIOS as well as hdparm -S, but strangely only hdc powers down (checked that with hdparm -C). I don't really expect hda to power down as the system resides on it, but hdb obviously should. Does anyone have an idea why it doesn't? -- cheers, Michael _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
