But that's my setup on several servers and I didn't really notice any slow down.
There are many howto's out there, but this is the one I liked the most. I followed this one because I was on a remote system the first one I setup, but have since used similar steps for many other machines.

And yes... you simply treat your raid device like any other disk when creating a lvm.

Hi,
I read the intro to LVM and like the fact that I can add additional HDs without problems. However, if I want to have everything running in a RAID1 configuration in case one of my hard disks decides to crash or break some sectors, how do the two work together? Do I first configure the RAID1 and put the LVMs on top of my md_ partitions?
How reliable is this, and how much performance do I loose?
Thanks,
MARK
