Hi I have (I hope) a reasonable requst. Build raid on top of lvm on top of raid. Here is my config (I have done it from cmdline):
5 hdds 320GB (notebook disks):
One hdd is OMV 0.5 system disk with about 280 GB partition for data (sda2). On sda2 I have an lvm.
Four hdds are used in raid0 with lvm on top of it.
All my data is stored in a fex logical volumes on raid0. But I have some data which I want to have on raid1. So I have created a logical volumes (exactly same sizes) for that data. One logical volume on sda2 volume group and one on raid0 volume group. Than I have used these two same size logical volumes to create raid1 (OT: probably I should also use write mostly parameter).
So I have now raid1 from two logical volumes. One is located in VG on sda2 and one is located on very fast raid0 VG.
My questions:
1. How can I get
done after lvm initialization? (If I am not wrong, omv system, like any other system, assemble all raid volumes, than searches for lvm containers. Thus It will not assemble raid from logical volumes of lvm which are created after raid assemble part)
2. How can be grow (or any resize operation) done on this raid1?
PS: I have plan to make that raid0 from four of disk to be something bigger in future (probably raid10), but I am waiting for some sata multiplicator cards...
PS: Four notebook disks in raid0 can use whole 1Gbit network (NFS share).
