i'm trying to set up a concatenated vinum volume. i read chapter 13 in the handbook and as so often i've found a nice how-to on freebsddiary.org but somehow i'm stuck.
my /etc/vinum.conf file is like this: drive a device /dev/ar1h drive b device /dev/ar2h volume stuff plex org concat sd length 117239m drive a sd length 78528m drive b
disklabels: # /dev/ar1c: type: ESDI disk: ar1s1 label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 14945 sectors/unit: 240107427 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
c: 240107427 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 14945*)
h: 240107427 0 vinum # (Cyl. 0 - 14945*)
# /dev/ar2c: type: ESDI disk: ar2s1 label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 10010 sectors/unit: 160826652 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
c: 160826652 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 10010*)
h: 160826652 0 vinum # (Cyl. 0 - 10010*)
fidsk also looks good:
/dev/ar1:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
start 63, size 240107427 (117239 Meg), flag 80 (active)
beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1;
end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63/dev/ar2:

now i seem to be missing something here.. when i do vinum create -f /etc/vinum.conf
what i get is:
1: drive a device /dev/ar1h ** 1 Can't initialize drive a: Operation not supported by device 2: drive b device /dev/ar2h ** 2 Can't initialize drive b: Operation not supported by device 0 drives: 1 volumes: V stuff State: down Plexes: 1 Size: 191 GB
1 plexes: P stuff.p0 C State: faulty Subdisks: 2 Size: 191 GB
2 subdisks: S stuff.p0.s0 State: crashed PO: 0 B Size: 114 GB S stuff.p0.s1 State: crashed PO: 114 GB Size: 76 GB
messages says: /kernel: vinum: stuff.p0.s0 is crashed /kernel: vinum: stuff.p0 is faulty /kernel: vinum: stuff.p0.s1 is crashed
i have 'obliterated' the volume, i have remade the devices i allways end up with "Operation not supported by device".
something similar happens when i'm using the concat command to vinum:
vinum -> concat -v /dev/ar1h /dev/ar2h
volume vinum0
plex name vinum0.p0 org concat
drive vinumdrive0 device /dev/ar1h
Can't create drive vinumdrive0, device /dev/ar1h: Can't initialize drive vinumdrive0
i have come across this post: http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg.php3?msg_id=6949487&list=159
could that be the case with /dev/ar, too? i'm on 4.8-stable.
any hints how to go on would be great. please cc me, as i'm not on the list.
thanks and br jonas
