Re: SAS with mirror

You may consider to use LVM mirroring to (software) mirror your Integrated RAID (the SAS controller based) to a third disk.

This will work fine, but it makes it complicated to replaced this disk, once failed ...


If you want to have a "standby" copy of your boot disk (a clone), consider to use DRD (dynamic root disk).







Regarding points:

Hope this helps!

Re: SAS with mirror

Thanks Pete and Torsten and Johnson,

I will setup a drd and as Johnson mentioned, doesn't seem to be an issue with setting up a mirror as long as it's a free disk.
Thanks again guys, I will assign points accordingly.
