Then the machine comes up in single user mode. At this point if I
unload and reload geom_stripe, then the volume is created just fine
and I can boot the system in full production mode. Any ideas on why
I'm seeing this behavior? How can I fix it so that my machine
reboots without incident?
It looks like it's trying to add both disks again. I'd try to clean
the metadata (gstripe clear from a fixit cdrom) and recreate it but I
might be wrong.
Thanks for your reply. Yes, now I see that it *DOES* look like it's
trying to add it twice. I haven't tried cleaning the metadata as you
suggest because I don't want to lose data on the drive if I can avoid
it. Would your suggestion wipe the drive?
Also, I wonder if the metadata is really bad? It works just fine if I
kldunload and kldload the module. I ask because I would think that if
the metadata were bad, I would get this error every time I created the
stripe.
So where in the boot sequence is GEOM_STRIPE loaded? I'm starting to
suspect it's being loaded twice. I have it in /boot/loader.conf which
is where I thought it should be. Is there anywhere else to check?
Thanks,
Drew
