After upgrading to 4.3 from 4.2 my vinum configuration seems
to have stopped working.
this is my vinum.conf file:
drive vinumdrive0 device /dev/ad2c
drive vinumdrive1 device /dev/ad3c
volume vimum0
plex name vinum0.p0 org concat
sd name vinum0.p0.s0 drive vinumdrive0 size 0
sd name vinum0.p0.s1 drive vinumdrive1 size 0
After trying numerous times to read the drives:
# vinum read /dev/ad2c /dev/ad3c
Apr 23 13:41:07 slumber /kernel: vinum: no drives found
I've even got as far as to redo the configurtion:
vinum create -f /etc/vinum.conf
but i get:
1: drive vinumdrive0 device /dev/ad2c
** 1 Can't initialize drive vinumdrive0: Inappropriate ioctl for device
2: drive vinumdrive1 device /dev/ad3c
** 2 Can't initialize drive vinumdrive1: Inappropriate ioctl for device
Both drives are there and seem fine, only other odd behavior is..
su-2.03# disklabel /dev/ad3c

Warning, An incorrect partition c may cause problems for standard system utilities
This error message appears on both drives. I dont recall seeing this msg before when
I setup vinum, but I also dont think its a bad drive when both started doing it at
the same time.
Am i doing something wrong? I've had this working fine for about a year now and never
had
problems upgrading, this 4.3 release seems to have broke it but I cant say I know why.
I apologize if there is not enough information, i'll be glad to include any additional
information needed. Thanks.
