I'm sure the answer to my question is on the Net somewhere but after a day and a half of searching, I've decided to plea for help. :) The error I get when I attempt to create the volume is: vinum -> create ftp_vinum.conf 4: sd length 76319m drive ftp1 ** 4 No space for on ftp1: No space left on device The disk, volume, and plex are created but the subdisk is not: D ftp1 State: up Device /dev/ad1s1h Avail: 152637/76319 MB(200%) V ftp State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 0 B P ftp.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 0 Size: 0 B Then steps I've taken and my config file, fdisk output, and disklabel are contained in the following narrative. I just wanted to put the error up front for those browsing the list. I have an 80G IDE drive (ad1) that I wish to use for a vinum volume. I have read the example at http://www.freebsddiary.org/vinum.php. It tells me that the first step is to determine the size of my drive by using fdisk. blacklamb# fdisk ad1 ******* Working on device /dev/ad1 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=30629 heads=81 sectors/track=63 (5103 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=30629 heads=81 sectors/track=63 (5103 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 0, size 156301488 (76319 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ head 0/ sector 1; end: cyl 1023/ head 80/ sector 63 IIUC, this tells me that the disk size is 76319 M. Next I used disklabel -e to create the vinum partition. blacklamb# disklabel ad1 # /dev/ad1c: [...irrelevant portion removed...] 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 156301488 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 9729*) h: 156301488 0 vinum # (Cyl. 0 - 9729*) Then I created my configuration file: blacklamb# cat ftp_vinum.conf drive ftp1 device /dev/ad1s1h volume ftp plex org concat sd length 76319m drive ftp1 When I issue the create command, I get the error I described at the top of this message. So I guess my question is, "How do I determine the correct size of my drive?". I wish to use the entire drive. Please let me know if I'm missing information. Nudges to appropriate web pages appreciated. Thanks, Drew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
