Hi,
I'm trying to use vinum to create a single volume over 4 identical SCSI
disks.
Currently, each disk has a slice 8100MB in size at:
/dev/da1e
/dev/da2e
/dev/da3e
/dev/da4e
Each disk is 'dangerously dedicated'.
Using 'dsiklabel -e device', I've renamed the FS from 'BSD4.2' to 'vinum'
and created the following 'vinum.conf' in /etc:
drive a device /dev/da1e
drive b device /dev/da2e
drive c device /dev/da3e
drive d device /dev/da4e
volume myvolume
plex org striped 512k
sd length 8100m drive a
sd length 8100m drive b
sd length 8100m drive c
sd length 8100m drive d
I then 'vinum create -f /etc/vinum.conf'
This is where my system gives up. Kernel panic. Dead. Gone. RIP.
I was wondering if it's something to do with my initial setup and formatting
of the disks ... should they be mentioned in '/etc/fstab'? How should they
be mentioned in '/etc/fstab'.
Any / all advice welcome!
Steve.
