Re: Raid Array with 3.5Tb
From: Evan Felix
Date: Wed Mar 24 2004 - 16:18:03 EST
Remember the 3.5Tb Array i've been trying to build, i finally got around
to getting some source code changes that seem to work much better.
Attached you will find a patch that fixes the raid5 code to a point
where it seems to re-sync and recover without complaining about maps not
being correct. The patch below is build against a 2.6.3, but will patch
2.6.4 sources as well. At this point i'd like to hear comments,
thoughts on the changes i've made. Some notes:
1. raid0 seems to work fine at 3.5T
2. I have not looked at the raid6 code, but it does not work at 3.5Tb
3. Formatting the array with ext3 takes a very long time, not sure why
yet.
Here is the patch:
