30 disks raid 50 via LIO iSCSI and LVM.
Anyway, I do not see much sense to make them 30 GiB when they can grow to 500 GiB – at least provided that you use thin provisioning. Cause xfs_growfs and resizing the image will likely be a manual step while thin provisioning goes automatically and only needs to be monitored.
I do not use thin provisioning as dm thin is not production ready isn't it?
That manual step makes sense tough if you want to guarentee all the space thats visibly in df output is really physically available, without providing for x times 500 GiB initially.
Oh i can easily automate the whole resizing stuff. Stefan _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
