[cobalt-security] What is the best way to Mirror Hard Drives



Hello.  We wanted 2 know what was the most efficient
(least resources taking) way to mirror a 30 gig IDE
drive on a Raq2 to another 30 gig drive, & also the
easiest way as well.  We read on Cobalt's KB that 2
machines can be mirrored via NFS, though we also heard
that running NFS is another security issue.  Or can we
mirror the IDE to an external SCSI dirve array via the
50 narrow port, or is it better to run the entire
system on an external SCSI array and mirror the drives
there (as opposed to IDE mirroring).  Also, is
mirroring 2 drives on the same IDE cable practical on
a Raq2 & if so what are the commands to set this up
IDE or on the external SCSI?

Cheers,
