>Description:
I try:

  $ gmirror label -h mymirror /dev/zvol/pool/component0.eli 
/dev/zvol/pool/component1.eli 

And nothing appears in /dev/mirror/.  I can confirm that "gmirror dump" shows 
metadata there.  But the mirrored setup isn't actually constructed so I can't 
use it.  It's also unclear to me how to best ask the kernel to manually try 
activating a GEOM label based upon written metadata.  Presently, a "geom 
activate" has no effect at all - exit status 0 and yet, still, nothing appears 
in /dev/mirror/.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to create a gmirror GEOM setup as above.
