Sorry for the double post but I found a copy of the actual error...
growfs: rdfs: seek error: 237231962044550260: Unknown error: 0

On FreeBSD 5.3 I added disks to a disk array. The array contained two
250 GB disks stripped (actually four mirrored and striped but it's all
done in hardware). I added two more pairs to the virtual disk,
rebooted the machine, rewrote the disklabel for the additional
capacity and ran growfs. It would grow the filesystem to almost the
end and reported growfs: rdfs: seek error: <some really large number
18 digits long>: unknown error: 0
I ran growfs with progressively smaller -s options, but the same thing
happens when it gets near the end of the new size of the file system.
fdisk reports the new size for the disk in sectors on partition 1 and
the cylinders, heads and sectors/track appear proper.
the only odd thing I notice is that
nfs2# fdisk -s /dev/da1s1
/dev/da1s1: 121341 cyl 255 hd 63 sec
Part Start Size Type Flags
4: 0 50000 0xa5 0x80
nfs2# fdisk -s /dev/da1
/dev/da1: 121342 cyl 255 hd 63 sec
Part Start Size Type Flags
1: 63 1949359167 0xa5 0x80
notice da1s1 lists part 4 as size 50000 (25 MB). da1 lists the
propersize.
disklabel looks right for da1s1
nfs2# disklabel -r /dev/da1s1
# /dev/da1s1:
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
c: 1949359167 0 unused 0 0 # "raw"
part, don't edit
d: 1949359167 0 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552
Now, I had gone through this process when upgrading from one pair to
two without a problem. I'm not sure where to start looking for issues
and am looking for a pointer of where to start looking or a better
idea of what info I need to debug this. Does anyone see something
completely out of whack?
