May 15, 2015 at 21:27 comment added derobert @sagar I'm not sure why you'd slice the disk into multiple pieces inside the kernel (by partitioning) only to put it back together inside the kernel (via LVM). Just do the straightforward thing—one large partition, put a PV on it, slice it with LVM.
May 15, 2015 at 8:26 comment added sagar Hi, We are using Hardware RAID 6 and I am planing to create 9TB x 4 partitions. /dev/sdb1/2/3/4 and create lvm with striping and I also use 64MB PE for better performance. Is this fine ?
