Hi,
We have plans to build a 30TB aprox. data storage using a set of SAN boxes configured as
RAID 5, our understanding is that using LVM2 with Red Hat 4 and our 64 bit AMD opteron
processors shall allow us to do that. Our concern is to know in advance if our approach is
wrong or even better if somebody else has been successfully taking the same road before.
Documentation tells us that the limit is in the order of the 8 Exabytes (8TB for IA-32)
but this is not enough as this is a go / no go decision.
Thanks for any help or pointer to a similar rig.
