Message-ID: <20010102230107.A559@basildon.homerun> Mail-Followup-To: Thomas Seck , freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i Organization: Die Teilchenbeschleuniger Sender: Thomas Seck Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all, sorry if this is OT for -stable, but I followed the discussion about vinum in here and got a bit worried. I am currently deploying a proxy server for our company. It shall use squid on 4.2-STABLE. I would like to put the cache data on a vinum RAID 0, made of three U160 disks. As I understood the discussion so far, there are some unresolved problems with the raid 5 code. Could someone tell me whether I can safely use vinum for building a raid 0 system (despite the fact that the HW may be a point of failure of course)? Thanks in advance and best regards from Germany -Thomas Seck To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
