LOL. You beat me to it. I just figured this out. I have 7zip
installed and I got further this time. However, the script still
produced some errors. Should this concern me?
FYI --- My root is mirrored
bash-3.2# metastat -c
d40 m 19GB d41 d42
d41 s 19GB c1d0s4
d42 s 19GB c3d0s4
d20 m 423GB d21 d22
d21 s 423GB c1d0s3
d22 s 423GB c3d0s3
d10 m 19GB d11 d12
d11 s 19GB c1d0s0
d12 s 19GB c3d0s0
d30 m 2.0GB d31 d32
d31 s 2.0GB c1d0s1
d32 s 2.0GB c3d0s1
d40 is the mirror for the new 108 BE
d10 is the active 78 mirror
