Re: GEOM ELI: MD5 hash mismatch for /dev/mirror/gm0s1f

 It's impossible to tell which one of these is more likely without more
 information (e.g. did you receive any other messages, such as CRC errors
 on the drive?)
No, I didn't receive more information. Can I exclude that a
combination of gmirror and geli is responsible for this error? Because
one without another works fine.

 Hi,
 
 what is this kind of error's meaning?

It means that metadata (in the last provider's sector) is in an
inconsistent state. Someone/something changed it.

The error occurs while attaching a device on a gmirrored disk. Am I
right assuming that the responisble change happens right between
initialisation and attachment?

Usually it means your data is corrupted. Some possible reasons are:

- bad sectors or media deficiencies
- power failures or fluctuations that affected the drive and/or the 
controller

- bad cables
- bugs, either in hardware (motherboard, controller) or software (geli).

It's impossible to tell which one of these is more likely without more 
information (e.g. did you receive any other messages, such as CRC errors 
on the drive?)
