Actually, if you have three or more pvs for lvm (on non-raid disks),
using these for a mirrored-lv is more versatile then plain
software-raid as you can change/move more things around. You just need
three pvs because lvm forces the mirrorlog to be on a different pv then
the mirrors (which makes sense). But it actually doesn't force you to
have the mirrorlog on a different hdd, partitioning your 2TB disk
into [1GB, 1TB, rest of 3TB] gives you three pvs to create a
mirrored lv with the log on the first and data on the second and
third partition:-) Of course you only gain slower speed with that, no
security. But to get acquainted with the commands its great.
Have fun,
Arnold
