wedges on raidframe on wedges
Hi,
I have two 2TB drives. They need to be mirrored and cut up in to several
chunks that can be exported via iSCSI and/or NFS. So my first
inclination is to create 1 large wedge on each disk, RAID-1 them
together with RaidFrame and then split up the raid using wedges.
Now this is not that different, I guess, than disklabels on raidframe on
disklabels. But it does bring up a few questions for me...
o Is there any benefit to creating wedges on raid0 vs. disk-
labeling it?
o Consider that the "partitions" on raid0 will be exported via
iSCSI. What "type" would I use in dkctl raid0 addwedge?
o Is there any advantage to sharing up the wedges (or partitions)
vs. creating a filesystem and sharing up sparse files? I can't
imagine the latter being better for performance!
o Any other pitfalls wrt wedges that I should be concerned about?
Any help would be great!
Louis
