  • Well, I’ve found some of the answer.

    /volume1 is a single LV on a single VG - no surprise there. There are two PVs comprising it, each of which is a RAID5 group across an extended partition on the disks.

    pv0 is /dev/sd[abcd]5 and pv1 is /dev/sd[abcd]6

    Now what I find most interesting right now is that SHR supposedly required btrfs to operate - and yet, /volume01 is an ext4 filesystem.

    Part of me would like to convert to btrfs, but I’d need a spare 10TB of storage just to back up to, before starting down that odyssey.

    More digging, more questions.










  • I’d qualify that as for-profit mandatory insurance.

    Canpt get a mortgage without home insurance. Canpt drive a vehicle without at least liability. Those rates should be strictly government regulated to be sustainable and non-profit.

    But if you want to insure your collection if priceless Whitworth wrenches, well maybe I care a bit (Just a bit!) less about insurance gouging.
