I recently added the keyword "retryerrors" to subdisk configuration. You don't have this, and your system is not redundant, so the "correct" answer is to say "sorry, you've lost a subdisk". I'm rethinking this view, however. In the meantime you should be able to use the 'setstate' command to work around the problem: vinum -> setstate up vol.p0.s1 vol.p0.s0 vinum -> saveconfig Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
