Hello,
I'm going to make my partition mirrored using the geom utilities, but
however I've noticed that I cannot use the same way I used to do it under

Hi all,
A fix is found.
This is not pretty but worked for me. I did this since the attach
command of the old vinum tool is not implemented in gvinum. Which
would be nice.
What I did:
1) snap the vinum config to a file.
2) delete the objects.
3) saveconfig
4) create the same objects again.

The difference is obvious - somehow gvinum lost track of the plex to
subdisk relations.
Is there any way of restoring these?
What would happen if I where to re-create the Plexes? (Drop/create)
and then saveconfig?
Thanks

Hi all,
I have some problems with my gvinum setup after the system panic'ed.

several times, while the loop ran.
After cvsupping to 5.4-Beta1 I enabled gvinum to use as a volume manager
(RAID is being handled by a 3ware Escalade 9500-8).

mirrored sets (e.g. stripe across 3 sets of mirrors). Has
anyone managed to implement this and, if so, what does your
configuration file look like?
No, it doesn't work that way.
If not, could this be added as a feature request for gvinum?
To do this you should enter a PR. It would help if you

You need to use gvinum on 5-STABLE and -CURRENT.
As far as I can tell, it would be wise

gvinum.

I don't know about RAID5, but 0+1 was working for me in December :
can anyone confirm what the preferred tool is
in 5.3-STABLE, vinum or gvinum ? Is gvinum
ready for production use in a RAID5 config ?

I've been playing with vinum and gvinum with a RAID-1 boot setup (now
abandoned, hardware RAID was $29 - SM P4DC6+ with Adaptec 2005S) and with
a RAID5 array using a Compaq version of the Adaptec 39160 card.
I've found that only "geom_vinum_load="YES" works in order
Hello,
build a few 5.3 boxes and found a problem which never occured before with
vinum.
when creating a new box (mirror only) the p1 plexes are stale till they are
synced the first time. with gvinum when starting in multi user mode:
usr.p1.s0 it cant be startet
usr.p1 it starts and then gets a
1 - 100 of 110 matches
