Hello I was wondering, that maybe someone from our community, skilled enough, could submit a patch to LVM which will enable autodetection of RAID stripes in the underlying device? We would no longer suffer any slowdowns, then ;-) If LVM cannot communicate with RAID layer (eg. because it's too difficult, since /dev/md0 is *only* a block device) - then LVM could do empirical autodetection by writing data to /dev/md0 (*) and reading data from /dev/sda3 (*), /dev/sdb3 (*) and comparing it. (*) those are just an example values, of course. They would be a command line parameters for that ;-) best regards -- Janek Kozicki | -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
