I think I may have run into a bug in bconsole - or maybe it's just some odd but behavior whose documentation I have missed?
When you delete a volume on the command line, you use the following command: delete volume=volumename pool=poolname However, if you reverse the arguments, unexpectedly delete will delete the POOL instead of the volume: delete pool=poolname volume=volumename. I would expect the two statements to be equivalent. The documentation just says (incorrectly) "if the pool keyword is found on the command line, the pool will be deleted". I think this is actually a fairly dangerous bug, because if you don't pay close attention it can delete a lot more than you'd expect - even more so because the second, dangerous, version is the more convenient one when deleting multiple volumes (just hit the up arrow and edit the volume name). -- Kevin Keane Owner The NetTech Turn your NetWORRY into a NetWORK!
