You can use the rebuild command also on non-raid controllers, at least it w= as=20 possible for me when I did some tests about 3 months ago. As I can see you're considering gmirror, perhaps that's the better solution= =20 for you. In all cases, simulate a drive failure, so you do know what to do= =20 when one drive really fails. =2DMano > > How can I rebuild the array on a normal ATA controller? > Greetings, Matthias --nextPart1241400.7dvNC5urjH Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBBhVpuBylq0S4AzzwRAvEoAJ9WKkT+0cG175wer1qJZyu2QgDuZwCaA7TG FFr3NCUJZU0TKOrIZO0KcKE= =aw3A -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1241400.7dvNC5urjH--
