Why did you choose LVM? Isn't mdadm better in terms of performance (I read somewhere that LVM is working on top of mdadm)?

Why LVM, Charles? I heard that LVM is running on top of mdadm - isn't it better to use mdadm itself?

c2是否可使用远程
可以的

[Wondertan]

@Byeager1, can you pls share the PC1 time you get on 7F52?

[Shekelme]

How do you achieve the simultaneous work of all four ports of network cards? In my case, double-port cards use only one channel bandwidth ...

[Wondertan]

@Shekelme, search for "bonding network interfaces", e.g. https://wiki.debian.org/Bonding

There are multiple ways for doing bonding. Personally, I use 802.3ad
