* Change default metadata from 0.90 to 1.1NeilBrown2009-11-17
| | | | | | | | | 1.1 is more flexible in a number of ways and is safer. 0.90 is still fully supported. 1.0 should possibly be used for RAID1 arrays that you want to boot off, depending on your boot loader. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
* Increase default chunk size to 512KNeilBrown2009-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | This seems more appropriate for current (and recent) model drives than 64K. 64K is still the default for '--build' as changing that could corrupt data. 64K is also the default rounding for 'linear' on kernels older than 2.6.16. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
* Enhance raid4 support: --assemble and --monitor wasn't quite happy with it.Doug Ledford2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com> This one actually does a couple things. Mainly related to raid4, but kinda touches other raid levels some. When creating a raid4 array, treat it like a raid5 array in that we create it in degraded mode by default and add the last disk as a spare. Besides speeding things up, this has a second effect that it makes mdadm more consistent. In order to create a degraded raid5 array, you need only passing missing as one of the devices. For a degraded raid4 array, prior to this patch, you must pass assume-clean or else it refuses to create the array. Even force won't make it work without assume-clean. With the patch, raid4 behaves identical to raid5. Separate from that, the monitor functionality completely ignores raid4 arrays. That seems to stem from the code that checks to see if the array is part of a long list of types. It seems easier to check which array types *aren't* redundant instead of listing the ones that are redundant and missing some of them. This makes the monitor service actually watch raid4 arrays.
