LDM - Logical Disk Manager (Dynamic Disks)
|
||||
------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Originally Written by FlatCap - Richard Russon <ldm@flatcap.org>.
|
||||
Last Updated by Anton Altaparmakov on 30 March 2007 for Windows Vista.
|
||||
|
||||
Overview
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
Windows 2000, XP, and Vista use a new partitioning scheme. It is a complete
|
||||
replacement for the MSDOS style partitions. It stores its information in a
|
||||
1MiB journalled database at the end of the physical disk. The size of
|
||||
partitions is limited only by disk space. The maximum number of partitions is
|
||||
nearly 2000.
|
||||
|
||||
Any partitions created under the LDM are called "Dynamic Disks". There are no
|
||||
longer any primary or extended partitions. Normal MSDOS style partitions are
|
||||
now known as Basic Disks.
|
||||
|
||||
If you wish to use Spanned, Striped, Mirrored or RAID 5 Volumes, you must use
|
||||
Dynamic Disks. The journalling allows Windows to make changes to these
|
||||
partitions and filesystems without the need to reboot.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the LDM driver has divided up the disk, you can use the MD driver to
|
||||
assemble any multi-partition volumes, e.g. Stripes, RAID5.
|
||||
|
||||
To prevent legacy applications from repartitioning the disk, the LDM creates a
|
||||
dummy MSDOS partition containing one disk-sized partition. This is what is
|
||||
supported with the Linux LDM driver.
|
||||
|
||||
A newer approach that has been implemented with Vista is to put LDM on top of a
|
||||
GPT label disk. This is not supported by the Linux LDM driver yet.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Example
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
Below we have a 50MiB disk, divided into seven partitions.
|
||||
N.B. The missing 1MiB at the end of the disk is where the LDM database is
|
||||
stored.
|
||||
|
||||
Device | Offset Bytes Sectors MiB | Size Bytes Sectors MiB
|
||||
-------+----------------------------+---------------------------
|
||||
hda | 0 0 0 | 52428800 102400 50
|
||||
hda1 | 51380224 100352 49 | 1048576 2048 1
|
||||
hda2 | 16384 32 0 | 6979584 13632 6
|
||||
hda3 | 6995968 13664 6 | 10485760 20480 10
|
||||
hda4 | 17481728 34144 16 | 4194304 8192 4
|
||||
hda5 | 21676032 42336 20 | 5242880 10240 5
|
||||
hda6 | 26918912 52576 25 | 10485760 20480 10
|
||||
hda7 | 37404672 73056 35 | 13959168 27264 13
|
||||
|
||||
The LDM Database may not store the partitions in the order that they appear on
|
||||
disk, but the driver will sort them.
|
||||
|
||||
When Linux boots, you will see something like:
|
||||
|
||||
hda: 102400 sectors w/32KiB Cache, CHS=50/64/32
|
||||
hda: [LDM] hda1 hda2 hda3 hda4 hda5 hda6 hda7
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Compiling LDM Support
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
To enable LDM, choose the following two options:
|
||||
|
||||
"Advanced partition selection" CONFIG_PARTITION_ADVANCED
|
||||
"Windows Logical Disk Manager (Dynamic Disk) support" CONFIG_LDM_PARTITION
|
||||
|
||||
If you believe the driver isn't working as it should, you can enable the extra
|
||||
debugging code. This will produce a LOT of output. The option is:
|
||||
|
||||
"Windows LDM extra logging" CONFIG_LDM_DEBUG
|
||||
|
||||
N.B. The partition code cannot be compiled as a module.
|
||||
|
||||
As with all the partition code, if the driver doesn't see signs of its type of
|
||||
partition, it will pass control to another driver, so there is no harm in
|
||||
enabling it.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have Dynamic Disks but don't enable the driver, then all you will see
|
||||
is a dummy MSDOS partition filling the whole disk. You won't be able to mount
|
||||
any of the volumes on the disk.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Booting
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
If you enable LDM support, then lilo is capable of booting from any of the
|
||||
discovered partitions. However, grub does not understand the LDM partitioning
|
||||
and cannot boot from a Dynamic Disk.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
More Documentation
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
There is an Overview of the LDM together with complete Technical Documentation.
|
||||
It is available for download.
