The default is disk, which is persistent and requires a small amount of storage space, usually on a separate device from the data being mirrored. Using core means the mirror is regenerated by copying the data from the first device again each time the device is activated, for example, after every reboot. RHEL 5.2 include lvm2 2.02.32, so it should be fixed already. |
