I had already tried to init the mirror: vinum -> init -v -w mirror.p1 vinum[53957]: initializing subdisk /dev/vinum/rsd/mirror.p1.s0 vinum[53957]: can't write subdisk /dev/vinum/rsd/mirror.p1.s0: Input/output error child 53957 exited with status 0x1 vinum[53954]: couldn't initialize plex mirror.p1, 1 processes died vinum -> start mirror.p1.s0 Can't start mirror.p1.s0: Invalid argument (22) vinum -> when I rebooted, this is the output that I got.....the second slice of the mirror changed to faulty: D drive1 State: up Device /dev/da1e Avail: 17/117 MB (14%) D drive2 State: referenced Device Avail: 0/0 MB V mirror State: up Plexes: 2 Size: 100 MB P mirror.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 1 Size: 100 MB P mirror.p1 C State: faulty Subdisks: 1 Size: 100 MB S mirror.p0.s0 State: up PO: 0 B Size: 100 MB S mirror.p1.s0 State: crashed PO: 0 B Size: 100 MB -----Original Message----- From: Greg Lehey [mailto:grog@lemis.com] Sent: Sunday, September 19, 1999 11:30 PM To: river Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: VINUM (MORE) [Format recovered--see http://www.lemis.com/email/email-format.html] On Sunday, 19 September 1999 at 23:09:18 -0500, river wrote: > I think I have it setup correctly now Looks reasonable. > I did a test mirror (100m each) and was able to newfs and mount it.

This is normally not the case, and correctly you should use the init command to first bring them to a consistent state. In the case of striped and concatenated plexes, however, it does not normally cause problems to leave them inconsistent: when using a volume for a file system or a swap partition, the previous con- tents of the disks are not of interest, so they may be ignored. If you want to take this risk, use this keyword. It will only apply to the plexes defined immediately after the volume in the configuration file. If you add plexes to a volume at a later time, you must integrate them. You can fix this with 'start mirror.p1.s0'. You should also look at the 'mirror' command.
