[Feature request] RAID Management

Open jivank opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Describe the solution you'd like Ability to create LVM, BTRFS or ZFS from disks. Would this be better suited as a Subservice? If so, is there any documentation for setting up one?

I am wondering if these disk management features are truly necessary. As this is an OS design for general purpose cloud computing instead of acting as a storage management system (or NAS OS).

It might be more suitable for Sub-service. If you are interested in developing one, please take a look at the subservice demo module https://github.com/aroz-online/ArozOS-Subservice-Example

I believe zfs or btrfs is still a necessity for uptime in a high-performance computing system. As both filesystems could provide snapshot or self-healing, that could guarantee the system won't be crash easily.

What you are saying is true. However, I am busy working on the system core in these period of time. @yeungalan can you help pick one and start work on it first? You can start by adding a new zfs or btrfs module in file system under mod/filesystem.

I will assign this improvement work to you, thanks!
