THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU That solved HALF my problem (i.e, it allowed me to revive one of my two down disks. This also shows that vinum CAN handle a fault in both plexes at the same time. BUT BUT BUT I still have another problem -- the same trick does not work for the OTHER down disk. vinum-<dumpconfig shows: sd name raid.p0.s9 drive *invalid* plex raid.p0 len 4402583s driveoffset 265s state crashed plexoffset 0s Note the "invalid" where the name of my disk should be. Apparently VINUM has forgotten that raid.p0.s9 should be associated with the disk named ahc0t15, so creating a new disk named ahc0t15 does not associate with the necessary subdisk. (*nvalid* does not work as a disk name). How do I deal with THIS issue? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - 250MB free storage. Do more.
