Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 3.1 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Hot on the heals of 3.0.3 I am pleased to announce the availability of
|
||||||
|
mdadm version 3.1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is available at the usual places:
|
||||||
|
countrycode=xx.
|
||||||
|
http://www.${countrycode}kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
|
||||||
|
and via git at
|
||||||
|
git://neil.brown.name/mdadm
|
||||||
|
http://neil.brown.name/git?p=mdadm
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It contains significant feature enhancements over 3.0.x
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The brief change log is:
|
||||||
|
- Support --grow to change the layout of RAID4/5/6
|
||||||
|
- Support --grow to change the chunksize of raid 4/5/6
|
||||||
|
- Support --grow to change level from RAID1 -> RAID5 -> RAID6 and
|
||||||
|
back.
|
||||||
|
- Support --grow to reduce the number of devices in RAID4/5/6.
|
||||||
|
- Support restart of these grow options which assembling an array
|
||||||
|
which is partially grown.
|
||||||
|
- Assorted tests of this code, and of different RAID6 layouts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that a 2.6.31 or later is needed to have access to these.
|
||||||
|
Reducing devices in a RAID4/5/6 requires 2.6.32.
|
||||||
|
Changing RAID5 to RAID1 requires 2.6.33.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You should only upgrade if you need to use, or which to test, these
|
||||||
|
features.
