Hi Guys,

Should one set blockdev --setra on the lvm device, on the individual block devices making up the lvm device or both?

Interesting question. Answer to that IMHO depends on the internal kernel structures.

Isn't the easisest aproach to try and see what happens ?

From experimentation: set it on everything.
