Hello everyone, Just to add, I had to type out the above message manually since I can't get access to anything with the crashed subdisk on /usr. With regard to Greg's requests for information when reporting vinum problems as stated on vinumvm.org <http://vinumvm.org>'s website, I can provide the following info:
What problems are you having? My usr.p0.s0 subdisk reports a 'crashed' status Which version of FreeBSD are you running? 4.10 Stable Have you made any changes to the system sources, including Vinum? No Supply the output of the *vinum list* command. If you can't start Vinum, supply the on-disk configuration, as described below. If you can't start Vinum, then (and only then) send a copy of the configuration file. I can't get anything off the system, and its too long to type out! (I have the same layout as in the Van Valzah article.) Supply an *extract* of the Vinum history file. Unless you have explicitly renamed it, it will be */var/log/vinum_history*. This file can get very big; please limit it to the time around when you have the problems. Each line contains a timestamp at the beginning, so you will have no difficulty in establishing which data is of relevance. I will summarise the tail of vinum_history (doesn't seem to provide any interesting info): 30 Jun 2005 ***vinum started*** 30 Jun 2005 list 30 Jun 2005 ***vinum started*** 30 Jun 2005 dumpconfig Supply an *extract* of the file */var/log/messages*. Restrict the extract to the same time frame as the history file. Again, each line contains a timestamp at the beginning, so you will have no difficulty in establishing which data is of relevance. Again, I will summarise the tail contents of messages: 30 Jun server /kernel: ad0s1h: hard error reading fsbn 59814344 of 29126985-29127080 (ad0s1 bn 59814344; cn 3723 tn 69 sn 2) trying PIO mode 30 Jun server /kernel: ad0s1h: hard error reading fsbn 59814344 of 29126985-29127080 (ad0s1 bn 59814344; cn 3723 tn 69 sn 2) status=59 error=40 30 Jun server /kernel: vinum: usr.p0.s0 is crashed by force 30 Jun server /kernel: vinum: usr.p0 is faulty 30 Jun server /kernel: vinum: usr is down 30 Jun server /kernel: fatal:usr.p0.s0 read error, block 29126985 for 49152 bytes 30 Jun server /kernel: usr.p0.s0: user buffer block 28102720 for 49152 bytes If you have a crash, please supply a backtrace from the dump analysis as discussed below under Kernel Panics. Please don't delete the crash dump; it may be needed for further analysis. I'm not sure if a kernel panic occurred? I hope this information helps, and that someone can give me some advice!
