Current GBDE Problems

I upgraded source on the current branch a few days ago and havn't been able to get GBDE to work nicely since. I'm running two separate GBDE devices, one 8MB memory disk, and one 1.2TB hardware raid 5 array, neither of which can I now get to mount. When I initialize a new disk on startup for the

Feasibility/Practicality of using GBDE to facilitate encryptedswap, md, /tmp, filesystems

Hopefully PHK has a chance to look this one over, but if anyone else has any thoughts I'll take any opinions I can get. ;) I was looking over the 5.2 TODO and got curious as to the changes intended for GBDE to allow integration into the fstab / boot-time mount procedure. Unfortunately I have a

Storage Management/Auditing

For lack of a better place to query, and a distinct lack of findings in my last few hours of googling, I was hoping someone on the list might be able to enlighten me on the subject of storage system management and auditing. I'm currently admining a low load, high capacity storage array (Raid 5,

Yep got it all figured out now. I didn't realize that the interface had changed, so I built a new kernel and rebooted before an installworld and ipfw bitched at me. Lesson learnt ;) Thanks for the feedback -John Alas make buildworld fails for the past few days: ===> usr.sbin/config [snip

New Kernel Breaks IPFW

Hey everyone, I just cvsup'd my src today and was going to buildworld later tonight but when I installed the newly built kernel with IPFIREWALL etc. and rebooted, ipfw fell over, specifically, even after ipfw firewall enable, an ipfw show resulted in a core dump. If its useful, I can post the i

Hey Everyone, I've been MIA with regards to the current list lately, but was checking the backlog for gbde stuff and came across this thread. Anyway, I've been running gbde (thanks to Poul for helping me out along the way) on a SMP (2x2.0ghz Xeon) box with a 3ware RAID 5 (8 drive ATA-133 array)

mdconfig/mdmfs problems -> kernel panic

OS: FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT, JPSNAP20030314 I'm running a Dual Xeon system with 1GB DDRRAM, and trying to create a ram disk to compile under, specifically to compile the kernel. I've tried several methods, involving either creating one 512MB disk with mdconfig or mdmfs. No matter what options I speci
