I believe if you reinstall FreeBSD on this disk (minimal install will do) it will be recognised by "request system partition".

Subject: [j-nsp] Hard Disk Replacement - M5


Hello,

I am trying to replace a hard drive on an old M5 running JunOS 6.2.
The RE installs the drive which can be seen from the following output:

r...@m5> show system boot-messages

ad0: 91MB <SanDisk SDCFB-96> [734/8/32] at ata0-master using PIO1
ad1: 11513MB <IBM-DARA-212000> [23392/16/63] at ata0-slave using UDMA33
Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a

The problem is that the RE won't partition it:

r...@m5> request system partition hard-disk
mount: /dev/ad1s1e: Device not configured
ERROR: Can't access hard disk, aborting partition.

The hard drive had been erased with dd.

Has anyone come across this problem? Am I missing something here?

Thank you!

Kind Regards,
V. Vasilev
