Special Forums Hardware Filesystems, Disks and Memory Multiple Paths to SAN with LVM in Linux? Post 302131150 by thebap on Thursday 9th of August 2007 10:29:11 AM

MySQL SAN / LVM / Multiple Paths

We've just completed a project using RedHat Ent Linux and an HP MSA1500 SAN.

Running the controllers in active/active mode we're using RedHats Device Mapper Multipath software to create multiple paths to our SAN.

I suspect the CentOS will have similar capabilities and be able to use Redhat RPMs for DM/DMMP.

Oh and the DM/DMMP technology is built on LVM so in a way you're still using LVM, I hope this helps you out a little.

NAME
pvck - check physical volume metadata SYNOPSIS
pvck [-d|--debug] [-h|--help] [-v|--verbose] [--labelsector] PhysicalVolume [PhysicalVolume...] DESCRIPTION
pvck checks physical volume LVM metadata for consistency. OPTIONS
See lvm for common options. --labelsector sector By default, 4 sectors of PhysicalVolume are scanned for an LVM label, starting at sector 0. This parameter allows you to specify a different starting sector for the scan and is useful for recovery situations. For example, suppose the partition table is corrupted or lost on /dev/sda, but you suspect there was an LVM partition at approximately 100 MB. This area of the disk may be scanned by using the --labelsector parameter with a value of 204800 (100 * 1024 * 1024 / 512 = 204800): pvck --labelsector 204800 /dev/sda Note that a script can be used with --labelsector to automate the process of finding LVM labels.
