D-26 Understanding Drive Arrays
Compaq recommends using hardware-based fault tolerance instead of
software-based fault tolerance. Hardware-based fault tolerance provides a
much more robust and controlled environment for fault tolerance protection.
If you choose software-based drive mirroring, create at least two arrays with
RAID 0 to achieve maximum storage capacity. Then, when configuring the
drive mirroring through the OS, mirror logical drives residing in different
arrays. In addition, the following fault-tolerant features will not be available:
Online Spare, Auto Reliability Monitoring, Interim Data Recovery, and
Automatic Data Recovery. Proceed to Chapter 5 to set up your drive array(s)
and fault tolerance.
