Re: Mirror and striping.

The "pseudo-striping", aka Distributed striping, was first made available in 10.20 with a patch, 11.0 and yes it is available in 11.11 as well.

I have used it in the past, and I am actually currently using it on some FC10s on a 10.20 box. The Distributed striping may not be the ideal setup for "striping" and mirroring but it does work. I personally think it's better than nothing.

Re: Mirror and striping.

Summing up,

you can't have regular striping with mirror at the same time on 11i (the version which I am interested in), you can only have "pseudo" striping.

Correct??

Re: Mirror and striping.

Actually, if you are talking strictly LVM then yes, you are correct.

If you want to buy or upgrade to the full version of Veritas Volume Manager that product WILL allow a true RAID 10 (striping/mirroring) volume.
