Hi,
Yesterday I installed a jpsnap (FreeBSD christine.energyhq.tk
5.0-CURRENT-20021115-JPSNAP i386), and tried to setup a RAID0 config
with two disks. raidctl -C goes fine, so does -I and -iv. Then fdisk'ed
and disklabelled. But when I tried to newfs the newly created partition
I started getting a bunch of errors like this:
---
Nov 16 00:04:59 christine kernel: raid0: node (R ) returned fail,
rolling backward
Nov 16 00:04:59 christine kernel: raid0: DAG failure: r addr 0x40 (64)
nblk 0x20 (32) buf 0xcdd50ea0
Nov 16 00:04:59 christine kernel: raid0: node (R ) returned fail,
rolling backw byte 76893
---
and so on.
Anyway, the newfs process finishes, then a simple piped tar to move the
old /usr to the RAID partition creates a myriad of those messages, to a
point where the system spends all the time logging those errors and tar
no longer continues.
The system is a dual P3 box, running a slightly modified GENERIC (added
SMP, raidframe and pcm), with INVARIANTS and WITNESS enabled (tried
without them too, no success).
So, any known issues with RAIDframe? I can supply more detailed info if
needed.
Cheers,
