Does "--write-behind=" have to be done at create time?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I was wanting to try out the "--write-behind" option. I have a raid1
with bitmaps and write-mostly enabled, which are all the pre-requisites,
I think.

It would be nice if you could tweak this parameter on a live array, but
failing that, it is hard to see why it couldn't be done at assemble
time. mdadm wont let me though.

Is this a fundamental limitation?

A related question, if I do recreate the same array, with exactly the
same parameters (except for the write-behind value) will my data still
be OK?
