I'll move the swap to the partitions then, though it is a moot point as the machine has 4G physical RAM and runs with a load such that usually about 2G is cache... I assume that if it never swaps, it never matters. But what I care about is the raid-5 shrinking issue... does anyone know if there is a reasonably safe way to shrink a raid-5 device (size, not number of drives) that is superblock format 0.90? I assume the --grow just forces the superblock based on the _device_, but if I shrank the _device_ before I shrank the raid, it wouldn't find the superblock in the first place... -Tom -- 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
