Sorry, this post wasn't an answer to your problem, it was a comment on the discussion whether raid should be implemented in LVM or not. At the moment neither LVM1 nor DM (LVM2) can provide redundancy. But you can use LVM on top of the software raid5 driver in linux. I don't think there is another way at the moment. -- Christophe Saout <christophe@saout.de> _______________________________________________ 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/
