I feel it should be clarified that's in *PAGES* (4K on x86) per *ARRAY MEMBER*. So the calculation can get a little bit complex, it's not like you're setting it to 32 MB with that number. For a 8-drive array that would be 32768 * 4096 * 8 = 1073741824 bytes (1GB). -- With respect, Roman -- 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
