I'm no expert, mostly just a lurker on this list, but couldn't you SoftRAID the 4 120GB's together then PV move the 300GB to the logical disk? <div>On 4/5/06, Alasdair G Kergon <<a href="mailto:agk@redhat.com">agk@redhat.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">On Wed, Apr 05, 2006 at 07:34:18PM +0200, Fredrik Tolf wrote: > Can pvmove not just divide that storage into three "partitions", There's no logic to do that yet.
