Hello people,
I'm trying to set up a gmirror on two slices, but I am stuck
somewhere. I am unable to find out what is wrong. Here's what I have
done so far:
I have 2 disks in the box. I have created 2 slices on both of them
(ad{4,6}s1 and ad{4,6}s2) through sysinstall. (btw,
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=72895&cat= is really
annoying, lucky I had a remote console :-))
Now I want to initialize gmirror on slice 1:
ha-db1# gmirror label -v -b round-robin gm0 /dev/ad4s1
gmirror: Can't store metadata on /dev/ad4s1: Operation not permitted.
ha-db1# sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16
kern.geom.debugflags: 0 -> 16
ha-db1# gmirror label -v -b round-robin gm0 /dev/ad4s1
gmirror: Can't store metadata on /dev/ad4s1: Operation not permitted.
for additional information, I am including the following:
ha-db1# fdisk -vp ad4
# /dev/ad4
g c1453521 h16 s63
p 1 0xa5 63 72340632
a 1
p 2 0xa5 72340695 1392803370
ha-db1# disklabel /dev/ad4s1
# /dev/ad4s1:
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
a: 1048576 0 4.2BSD 2048 16384 8
b: 25165824 1048576 swap
c: 72340632 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit
d: 25165824 26214400 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28528
e: 20960408 51380224 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28528
Any ideas will be much appreciated.
