Hi,
I have a problem to create a second RAID 1 on my router an Soekris
6501-70 (http://www.soekris.com/products/net6501-1.html)
The first RAID 1 is on 2 m-sata SSD (sd0+sd1=sd4) and is fine.
The second is connected to a PCI-E to S-ATA expansion card
(https://www.aliexpress.com/item/PCI-E-to-2-Port-SATA-III-3-0-RAID-Card-88SE9218-Chipset-for-Marvell-NCQ/32706555172.html)
with 2 HDD of 2Tb (both are quite new, so no bad sector or anything
else) (sd2+sd3=sd5).
I do the following commands
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd2c bs=1m count=1
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd3c bs=1m count=1
# fdisk -iy sd2
# fdisk -iy sd3
# disklabel -E sd2 # make an "a" partition of type RAID
# disklabel -E sd3 # make an "a" partition of type RAID
# bioctl -c 1 -l sd2a,sd3a softraid0
sd5 at scsibus4 targ 2 lun 0: <OPENBSD, SR RAID 1, 006> SCSI2 0/direct fixed
sd5: 1907726MB, 512 bytes/sector, 3907023473 sectors
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rsd5c bs=1m count=1
# fdisk -iy sd5
# disklabel -E sd5 # make an "d" partition
until here everything is OK. I can detach the device and/or reboot the
router, the RAID still fine.

I can rebuild the offline device but he still offline …
So, there any option or configuration to explain/solve that ? Something
wrong with what i do ?
Maybe something bad with the expansion card ?
Thanks for any help.
