Details… but it is *still* not redundant, so I fail to see how it has suddenly become a RAID level. ;) > On the other hand, LVM striping is per-LV. Doing something like > that with mdadm is... complex. Use mdadm for a RAID1 and LVM on top by default. Use mdadm for a RAID5 or RAID6 and LVM on top for the remaining cases when you need space and care less about performance. Use LVM without RAID if you need space (and/or performance) and have the data mirrored elsewhere. I fail to see the advantage of RAID0 in this scenario, as LVM is more flexible. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madd...@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems "we should have a volleyballocracy. we elect a six-pack of presidents. each one serves until they screw up, at which point they rotate." -- dennis miller
