A poll for opinions if I may? I've got a few gmirrors running on various machines, all of which pair up two drives at the physical level (i.e. mirror /dev/ad0s1 with /dev/ad1s1). Of course there are other ways of doing it to, like mirroring at the partition level, ie pairing /dev/ad0s1a with /dev/ad1s1a, /dev/ad0s1e with /dev/ad0s1e, etc.
Apart from potentially avoiding a whole disk from being copied during a resync after a crash, are there any other advantages to using partition level mirroring instead of drive level mirroring? Joe -- === Josef Karthauser ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) === http://x2obuilder.com/tao ===
