Hi all,
I unfortunately have 2 uneuqally sized SATA disks to set up a mirrored
shared folder: 80GB and 120GB. On the 120GB I plan to set up this way:
/temp 2GB (double the system memory)
/shared 80GB
/ 38GB
I plan to mirror /shared onto the 80GB. It won't be bootable, but I can
always mount it onto another FreeBSD machine.
I've read some articles on mirroring on non-equal disks, notably:
http://people.freebsd.org/~rse/mirror/
My question is: is there an easier way to do this? The example looks
quiet daunting for a noobie FreeBSD admin like me.
Appreciate any feedback on this. Thanks.
