6TB SCSI RAID vs. Centos
by Milt Mallory 25 Jul '08

25 Jul '08

I have an Infortrend RAID box I'd like to see as one big 6TB partition, but I only can get 2.2TB partitions to work. I was trying to do this with an Adaptec controller but apparently they are only (any of them) 48 bits wide. Does anybody have a working system for SCSI/Centos over 2.2TB? Milt Mallory Topix.com 650-461-8316 Always consider the issues of progressive enhancement and graceful degradation (from Dom Scripting manual)
