Hi , I posted this query , but did not get a reply. Sending it again hoping will get a reply. I have a VG with 3 pv and a lv created using command lvcreate -i3 -I32 -l98 -nmy_lv my_vg lvdisplay shows 1024 as the value for Read Ahead Sectors. When i use the command lvchange to change the value of read ahead sector count with value more that or equal to 256 i get following error.. linux# lvchange -r 340 /dev/my_vg/my_lv lvchange -- ERROR "Invalid Argument" read ahead sector change linux# linux# Is there a limitation that read ahead value cannot be greater than 255? -- Thanks -Sachin _______________________________________________ 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/
