Not really. The use case is so simple that I really don't think it is a
general problem. Otherwise everyone would be complaining about it. I'll =

if I can schedule some more downtime for the server to run some more =
tests
of this. (I only did it once, and because the machine was live at the =
moment
the lockup of the ataraid arrays made it quite a mess, so I'm hesitant =
to
try it again unless I'm in single user mode.)

This was the command I issued that resulted in the crash. Nothing =
strange
about it as far as I can tell (taken directly from the gstripe man =
page).
gstripe label -v -s 4096 data /dev/da15 /dev/da16

/dev/da15 and /dev/da16 had been labeled and newfs'ed, but were not =

at the time.

As I said, if I get a chance I'll look at this next time the machine is =
down
in single user mode. I forgot to do that earlier this morning when I did =
a
lot of testing to try to get around the SATA vs. preemtion problem I'm
seeing.
