I'm not familiar with gmirror, but it'd be a way better idea to mirror it
using ZFS if possible - that way you get self-healing and stuff like that,
which you won't if ZFS doesn't have a mirror/RAIDZ setup, but only sees a
single slice.
I would like to do so. I have to disks (ad4 and ad5). Is it possible
to create two slices on both disks (eg ad4s1 and ad4s2 for ad4).
Then to create gmirror on ad4s1, install freebsd on it so it would
boot from it. Then, after having my system running to create zfs
mirror from ad4s2 and ad5s2?
Yes, I am using it this way:
r...@cage ~/# gmirror status
Name Status Components
mirror/gms1 COMPLETE ad4s1
ad6s1
r...@cage ~/# zpool status
pool: tank
state: ONLINE
scrub: none requested
config:
NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
tank ONLINE 0 0 0
mirror ONLINE 0 0 0
ad4s2 ONLINE 0 0 0
ad6s2 ONLINE 0 0 0
errors: No known data errors
r...@cage ~/# zpool list
NAME SIZE USED AVAIL CAP HEALTH ALTROOT
tank 444G 353G 91.2G 79% ONLINE -
gmirror gms1 is for system files, ports etc. zpool (444GB) is for jails
