2012-12-17 Thread Luke Bakken
Hello everyone - I'm looking for a way to get FreeBSD 8 / 9 to detect that an already existing disk has grown. I have FreeBSD running as a guest within vSphere ESX 5. Here is the output of camcontrol showing how the disks are detected within the OS: [root@QA1HWFBSD83201 ~]# camcontrol inquiry

Release engineers others will presumably later discuss release scheduling etc, after they've got the release out, taken a well deserved rest; Till then best refute critics that could demotivate unpaid hard working release builders.

We, the users of FreeBSD, *do hereby challenge* the FreeBSD project to meet its future release dates. Why: Because the FreeBSD project has not met a significant number of its release dates. It's an apalling state of affairs and makes you, the project, look silly. Business and personal users plan
