I want to have an identical copy (like dd) on another identical disk, for fast recovery in case of failure. This is what I do with raid hardware, and I would like to know if is possible to do it with lvm mirroring. I'm looking also on mdadm to mirror a disk (or partition) but I think it is not usable when disk is already partitioned and used without mdadm. Backup is good but is not a good choise in this case, because a full restore is a long process Tnx Ambrogio _______________________________________________ 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/
