Re: Is RAID5 Possible with LVM? Is LVM Mirroring now Free in 11.31?
I think in a typical setup nowadays you have a server with a hardware RAID connected (SAN).
For highly availability you can still mirror between different hardware RAIDs.
The server will have a set of 2 internal disks for mirrored boot disks. A third disk could be used for DRD.
If you have more internal disks (rx2660/rx3600/rx6600) you can use a hardware RAID like the P400 - this would not consume CPU power to calculate the RAID.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

LVM mirroring is not free - included with EOE and MCOE...
There is talk that in 11iv4, lvm mirroring for just the root disk may be included...
v3 rocks - Persistent DSF is great!

As Duncan has already said, On Integrity servers, MirrorDisk IS free providing you ask for it. If you don't it doesn't appear.
We have just purchased and installed 2 Integrity rx2660 servers and requested MirrorDisk/UX and were not charged. I queried this and that is what happens - it is free - if nowhere else, certainly in the UK.
regards,
Mike.

I could tell you the real reason they have made the change, but I think it's NDA right now. (Although the marketing answer is that it's "value add to you!")

Re: Is RAID5 Possible with LVM? Is LVM Mirroring now Free in 11.31?
Like I said, thats cos its free of charge with new FOE orders *if* you request it. If this system was purchased before it was free of charge, or Mirrordisk wasn't requested with it, then you don't get it - it's still not in the FOE bundle.

"On new Integrity servers with dual core processors we can quote a "no cost" mirror-ux, this is the full version and it carries no software or support costs at least for the first three years."
Another thought I have is, Base VxVM does include root disk mirroring - means converting from lvm to VxVM.
