RE: [Xen-users] Xen SAN Questions

To clarify, the disks themselves will be a RAID-5 local to each machine (1 array per machine, 2 in total) with DRBD running between to sort of RAID-1 them over the network. Does that help? I want to take the local RAID from both machines and turn it into a SAN.

We get about 166 MB/s write with our DRBD setup, what numbers are you seeing? Our hardware is:

Supermicro X7DWN+
Dual Xeon 5410
3ware 9650SE-16ML (in RAID 6 mode)
Centos 5.2
Xen 3.3.0
DRBD 2.3.0
