Hi,
I've a host with two large (2Tb and 4 Tb) hardware raid5 arrays.
For the backup system we are using, I need to join them to make 1

What would you recomment? ccd or vinum?
Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

Three other times we had power failures, the zpool ended with some errors.
But, all the times, the UFS partitions remained intact.

Thanks for your opinion. For now I will stick with the large RAID volume and no
