[linux-lvm] Mirroring ... especially over the network

Hi,

Other LVM systems, like IBMs, and the LSM that Digital/Compaq use (because
Digital could never get LVM to work), allow you to mirror volumes.

It seems that Linux LVM doesn't yet allow you to do so. 

I am wanting to mirror across the network and am currently using drbd for
this, but it would seem logical to add mirroring, perhaps even network
mirroring.

Are there any plans for this?


Regards
