I thought this might be a link to a message I wrote.  :)  In reading it, 
I see at the bottom I suggested that using firewire drives with vinum 
was unstable and that I would follow up.  However I can't recall if I 
ever posted my findings.

The instability with firewire on my system was due to having specified a 
SCSI delay of only 2 seconds.  The firewire drive enclosure was not 
detected in this short time frame and thus vinum did not find the drive 
when it started.  I did some experimenting and finally found that a 5 
second delay works on my system.  I'm happy to report that vinum and 
firewire have worked flawlessly together since.

Is there some way to add this note to that thread?
Thanks,
Drew

Help! Vinum drive crashed

2004-10-13 Thread Marc Smits
Dear Vinum-know-it-all / Greg:-)

Vinum reported one my disks in the volume has crashed. As mentioned in the thread
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2004-May/045942.html I did 2 
things.

1. vinum -> setstate up BigDisk0.p0.s0 BigDisk0.p0
FreeBSD did not like that and decided to reboot once I tried to mount 
/dev/vinum/BigDisk0

2. vinum -> create -f /etc/vinum.conf
Now I have an extra plex in the volume BigDisk0.p0, instead of an extra
volume which I can mount.

As for now I assume I can still get the voluma back up and get my data
back. Can anyone tell me how?

Thanks a lot, Marc
