Hello, to clarify why we need this setup: this is the setup for the oracle directory where the datafiles and indexfiles are located. we don't setup dedicated filesystem for data and indexfiles and we don't use raw devices. We mix everything in one directory which is setup up with the distributed option from HP-UX LVM on HP-UX. With this setup extents are distributed accross all LUN's and therefore disk IO is also distributed across all LUN's and administration of this setup i quit easier the using dedicated filesystems for datafiles and index files. We want to do this in the same way on Linux, therfore my question. I wrote a shell script which does excatly this distribution for Linux.
