RE: Disk Mirroring

["Macbrush" <macbrush macbrush com hk>]

Depends on what you mean by mirroring. If you're only looking for simple
disk mirror, than Linux software array feature can do it all. But if you are
talking about completely mirroring two separate machines, or even two
machines sharing one disk array, I guess RedHat don't ship with this
capability. Load balancing and redundancy, right? In fact, I am not sure
whether Linux can do it without hacking yourself some new programmes.
