md 1000 & dell2950

[Shanti kishore Balusu]

Hi

We recently purchased 2 Dell 2950's with 3 md1000 & we want to build a
highly available sollution using this hardware.Below r the details..

Hardware Details:

Dell 2950:                              Single Intel Xeon 3 Ghz proc with 4
Gig & with 2 146 Gb 10K rpm SAS drives preloaded with Redhat ES 4
Md1000:                                15 sata disks each 500 GB with 7200
rpm speed totalling 7.5 TB

please take a look at the attached image which is having the design
diagram..

we would like to connect all the 3 md1000 to each dell2950 using SAS cables
& all these 3 md 1000 should be accessible from each Dell2950.

If one of the dell2950 crashes due to any reason all the data which is there
on 3 md1000 should be available thruough the second dell2950

Please let us know how this can be done using the above hardware....

Thanx & Regards

Kishore Chowdary
