Hi, I just configured a mirror using softraid, the manpage was extremely helpful. I just copy pasted the relevant commands. To a complete newbie, it was missing a few more lines. I just added those and sending the diff. I hope a variation of this is accepted to make the "how to create mirror using softraid" is complete. Googling brings a lot of RAIDFrame etc, there is very little out there on a pure data mirror.
Thanks, amit Index: softraid.4 =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/src/share/man/man4/softraid.4,v retrieving revision 1.27 diff softraid.4 147a148,159 > .Pp > To use the freshly created mirror > .Bd -literal -offset indent > # mkdir /datamirror > # mount /dev/sd0a /datamirror > # chown normal_openbsd_user /datamirror > .Ed > .Pp > Adding the following line to /etc/fstab will make it useful after every boot > .Bd -literal -offset indent > /dev/sd0a /datamirror ffs rw,softdep,nodev,nosuid 1 2 > .Pp
