Hi we have a machine with 2 x 36Gb SCSI drives and we want to put var
and usr on to 2 vinum volumes. But we want both performance and
resilience can they be done with two drives only?
Here is a config I propose but not sure whether it will work too well or
not:- Is it ok?
drive sd0 device /dev/da0e
drive sd1 device /dev/da0f
drive sd2 device /dev/da1e
drive sd3 device /dev/da1h
volume var
plex org striped 256k
sd length 5g drive sd0
sd length 5g drive sd1
plex org striped 256k
sd length 5g drive sd2
sd length 5g drive sd3
volume usr
plex org striped 256k
sd length 10g drive sd0
sd length 10g drive sd1
plex org striped 256k
sd length 10g drive sd2
sd length 10g drive sd3
The reason I created 4 drives (2 slices on each drive) is so I could
have 2 drives per plex is the a good or bad idea!
What size var and usr will this give me 5g and 10g respectively!
Regards
Scott
