Thanks to: Jay Lessert Darren Dunham Tamas Erdei For their suggestions regarding mirroring diskset metadevices in a Sun Cluster. The feeling was the best way to do it is with RAID (1+0) where a stripe metadevice is made up of the data disks (A and B), a stripe metadevice is made up of the disks which are to be used for mirroring (C and D), and mirror these two metadevices together. Works like a charm. Thanks again! Scotty ------------------------- Original message ------------------------ Howdy We have a D2 storage array with 4 x 18Gb disks attched to a 2 node sun cluster 2 x 280R Sunfire systems, Colaris 8 (02/02), Sun Cluster 3.0 and Disksuite 4.2.1 The diskset we created for the cluster has contains these 4 disks. What we want to do is Disk ESM A 1 B 1 C 2 D 2 C and D are the mirror disks for A and B. We want to join A and B into a 34 Gb. concatenation - should each disk A and B be mirrored to C and D, then A and B concatenated and a global file system created, or should they be concatenated together then a concatenation of C and D be used to mirror that? (If in fact you can do such a thing.) The Disksuite and Sun Cluster install guides are kinda vague about this.I recall doin something similar years ago, but am doubt is it was in a cluster environment :)) Any help appreciated and I will summarize.
