Please can anyone tell me what raid levels (Raid1 (1D+1D ? 2D+2D ?) , Raid 0+1 ? , Raid 5 (3D+1P ? 7D+1P ?) , Raid 6 (6D+2P ?) )can be configured on XP1024 arrays.
If I want to have Raid 0+1 using XP arrays how to do this ? Is it possible through LVM ?
Thanks,
Ninad

Re: Raid levels in XP arrays
So at XP array the only Raid level available are RAID1 and RAID5 - right.
Now the option you suggested of having alternate path is fine but it just gives redundacy for path. What I was looking at is if I need to have good performace/throughput from the array disks - the Oracle preferred way is RAID 0+1 for databases and not RAID5, so I was trying to understand how this type of configuration can be achieved - at arrays level and at OS/LVM level.
It struck me that this can be achieved by mirroing disks at array level and creating stripped volumes at LVM level. This seems to be way out.
Please advice.
Thanks,
Ninad

SolutionRAID1: 2D+2D or 4D+4D
RAID5: 3D+1P or 7D+1P (except 300GB disks)
RAID?: 6D+2P (Dual Parity for 300GB+ disks)
8 disk configurations are only supported on XP1024 upwards for the HP Flavours OR 9980 upwards for the Hitachi flavour.

Re: Raid levels in XP arrays
Essentially you only need to do a RAID0 (striping) which is best practice anyway for XP/HDS arrays. And such is always done ON the host using its volume manager be it LVM or VxVM. Since the disks you see on your hosts are already protected - you do not need double protection (double RAIDing) - you only need to build your volumes soit touches more spindles/array groups as possible. Our standard is either a 4 or 8 way stripe with each lun/ldev component of the striped volume coming from different ACP's and/or Fibre channel presentations.
Hope this helps.
