Hello list, I have an experimental mediapartition built like this: - a reiserfs partition on lvm - the lvm resides on 8 ide disks - the ide drives are kept in a spun down state using hdparm When I access a file the required drives spin up. This can take a long time, since several drives might need to spin up in sequence, so what happens is I get an I/O error. the next time I try to access the partition, the drives are spun up, so theres no problem. I havent been able to find the relevant timout parameter. The docs for LVM1 mentions a timout parameter on lvchange, but this seems gone in LVM2. Also I'm not exactly shure if it even is a LVM2 partition. It was created a long time ago, and migrated to Fedora core 3 recently. It seems like the lvm2 tools are compatible with the lvm1 i format. Sorry for the confusion, any hints deeply apreciated. -- Joakim Verona www.verona.se _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
