Hi all,

We are deploying an increasing number of systems with md-raid. One question that I have not been able to answer with documentation reading or internet searches is when it is recommended to turn on the write intent bitmap and when it is recommended to not use it.

Pointers to documentation or explanations are welcome.

Thanks,
Jack
