I understand what you are saying about this not being an OpenBSD or a raidframe problem. I will try that tool you pointed me to and see what it says. Will it permanently mark the blocks as bad? If the worst happens I'm going to have to rebuild the system, but I don't want it to use those

I've tried, again, to fix my raid array with raidctl -R. I did it on the console port this time so I could capture the output from ddb Here is some output: # raidctl -s raid0 raid0 Components: /dev/wd0d: failed /dev/wd1d: optimal No spares. Parity status: DIRTY

2006-07-11 Thread Jason Murray
Is it standard practice to use raidctl on a raid set while your system is running from that raid set? I'm just curious as to what best practice might be? Last night I booted to a different disk so I could run raidctl -R against the array while it was not being used. That caused a kernel panic
