Each component partition should be offset at least one -cylinder from the beginning of the component disk. This avoids potential -conflicts between the compoent disk's disklabel and the -.Nm ccd's -disklabel. The kernel will only allow component partitions of type FS_BSDFFS. -.Pp -In order to compile in support for the ccd, you must add a line similar -to the following to your kernel configuration file: -.Bd -unfilled -offset indent -pseudo-device ccd 4 # concatenated disk devices -.Ed -.Pp -The count argument is how many -.Nm ccds -memory is allocated for a boot time. In this example, no more than 4 -.Nm ccds -may be configured. -.Pp -A -.Nm ccd -may be either serially concatenated or interleaved. If a -.Nm ccd -is interleaved correctly, a -.Dq striping -effect is achieved, which can increase performance. The optimum interleave -factor is typically the size of a track. Since the interleave factor -is expressed in units of DEV_BSIZE, one must account for sector sizes -other than DEV_BSIZE in order to calculate the correct interleave. -The kernel will not allow an interleave factor less than the size -of the largest component sector divided by DEV_BSIZE. -.Pp -Note that best performance is achieved if all compent disks have the same -geometery and size. Optimum striping cannot occur with different -disk types. -.Pp -There is a run-time utility that is used for configuring -.Nm ccds . -See -.Xr ccdconfig 8 -for more information. -.Sh WARNINGS -If just one (or more) of the disks in a -.Nm ccd -fails, the entire -file system will be lost. -.Sh FILES -/dev/{,r}ccd* - ccd device special files. -.Pp -.Sh HISTORY -The concatenated disk driver was originally written at the University of -Utah. -.Sh SEE ALSO -.Xr MAKEDEV 8 , -.Xr ccdconfig 8 , -.Xr config 8 , -.Xr config.old 8 , -.Xr fsck 8 , -.Xr mount 8 , -.Xr newfs 8 . |
