I am wanting to set up a vinum configuration so that I have a spanned
volume containing a large partition on one drive, and a second entire
disk. I am a little confused whether I need to build a striped or
concat volume.
The usable size on one disk is different from the usable size on the
other disk. From what I gather from the man pages and some howto's
found on the 'net, does this look like a reasonable config, or should
I use type stripe instead?
drive d1 device /dev/ad1s1e
drive d2 device /dev/ad2e
volume span
plex org concat
sd length 40000m drive d1
plex org concat
sd length 118000m drive d2
Unfortunately, I am not in a position to try this on a test network,
so this will be done on a hot production box. I understand that it
will wipe out data, but in this instance, both areas to be used are
currently empty.
Tks for any advice.
