geom changed this complications definitely, using gmirror or gstripe commands is easy as copying a file. Probably one of the most important things that with vinum as example it was not possible to mirror a root partition but since gmirror places the metadata different we can have now a mirrored and bootable root partition. Striping with ccd and vinum or mirroring was certainly a pain even if it worked then stable and reliable. So in comparism the easy use of geom is great and the people which developed geom did a really fantastic job. João A mensagem foi scaneada pelo sistema de e-mail e pode ser considerada segura.
