Don't test whether the "nonoptimal_volumes" parameter works, it does -
but if you pull a drive, FreeBSD likes to panic both on the loss of a
disk
and then again when the drive is reconnected and the rebuild completes.
This is apparently some problem in the CAM layer, not the mpt driver, but
it's something to be aware of. Scott Long has noted that this is being
worked on in 8.x.
Yes, I tried to remove a drive today. Of course I need to see if it
works properly
before using it "for real". It did, but just as you say it paniced when
I pulled the
drive and when is was resynced. But it sound great if someone is working on
this problem!
The instability during a rebuild should be fixed in 7.2 (and 7-stable as
of about the last month). If you can, please update your sources and
let me know if it helps.
As for actually monitoring and configuring arrays, that work is in
progress.
