Understandable. The vinum volume was newly created. newfs had not yet been run. Therefore, there was no data and the volume was not being used. The problem with resetconfig is, if I had another volume which WAS live and active, the resetconfig would have smoked that as well. I can't send a vinum ls -r because I did in fact do a a resetconfig this time. > First off, is the system mounted? No. > (/dev/vinum/mirror) If so, it's > certainly not idle.
