iscsi & LVM

Hi Everyone,

I would like to know if its possible to create a 2 copy mirror using LVM with 1 member a FC attached disk and the other an iscsi disk.

Will LVM let me mirror to two different disk types?

I know there will be issues doing this however it is only a short term solution until we get truecopy running.

Thanks.

LVM doesn't mind on what kind of disk your copies are. You can just try it out by creating a small LV on your VG consisting of those mixed type of disks and use lvcopy on it.
