Hi ...,

What is the maximum number of drives that we can have in a stripped logical
volume?

On a CentOS 7.3 machine, it is not allowing me to have a stripe count of
more that 8 Drives. I have 12 Drives in the Volume Group and would like to
use all of them in the Logical Volume.

Is it a limitation of RHEL/CentOS?
Is there a work around?

Regards,


Indivar Nair
