Hello,

I should have miss something in the man pages with softraid and bioctl. But
i want to form a RAID 1 between two 3TB harddisk (2.7TiB) and it is acting
like 2TiB MBR disks with OpenBSD 6.0.

fdisk -ig sd1 is OK.

Did you also use the -b option?

The FAQ now lists the steps for EFI setups:
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq14.html#softraid
Did you see this already?


I saw that but i dismissed it since i do not need a EFI boot for my "data container" disks. (aside of the container disks i've got a system disk with traditional image & rsync backups).

Anyway i did not find "anywhere" the mention that a softraid 1 needs to be based on a bootable units. As well as "huge" discs management topic seemed to me not so covered. Such idea of mandatory boot partition looked weird to me... i just posted an open question on the list.

Eric.
