Hello all,
We run Linux RAID 10 in our production with 8 SAS HDDs 7200RPM.
We recently got to know from the application owners that the writes on
these machines get affected when there is one failed drive in this
RAID10 setup, but unfortunately we do not have much data around to
prove this and exactly replicate this in production.
Wanted to know from the people of this mailing list if they have ever
come across any such issues.
Theoretically as per my understanding a RAID10 with even a failed
drive should be able to handle all the production traffic without any
issues. Please let me know if my understanding of this is correct or
not.
"without any issue" is nonsense by common sense
No need for the sark. And why shouldn't it be "without any issue"?
Common sense is usually mistaken. And common sense says to me the exact
opposite
your common sense told me you can change RAID10 to RAID1 because it's
only a metadata change not long ago
your same common sense told me years ago the "writemostly" on RAID10
don't work as in RAID1 because RAID10 on mdraid is not the same as
mirrored RAID0 but the same common sense pretended a few weaks ago the
opposite
so your common sense is incompatible with my common sense and yours is
based on assumptions while mine don#t need foreign assumptions and
guessings because it can do them alone
in other words: keep your assumptions for your own and respond only to
things you *know* and you have done in real life
