Hello guys.
I installed Ubuntu server 11.04 to be used as a nagios server.
It was installed with LVM in a 80GB HDD.
Since it took me weeks to configure nagios i decided to RAID it in 2 new 1TB drives instead of reinstalling from scratch.
I've gotten so far as to clone the 80 GB disk into one 1TB drive and resize it without issue (altough it was hard because i'm fairy unfamiliar with LVM)
I don't want to trash the installation in the new drive but i just can't find a LVM-specific RAID 1-installation how-to that's not 4 years old or includes setting up LVM or does not include LVM at all.
So, question and tl;dr: Is it safe to use a not LVM aware method to install RAID 1 in LVM?
Any help would be appreciated.
Also: got a beautiful "You do not have permission to create tags. You may only use existing tags." is there anything we can still do?
