Hello,

Since your plex organization is RAID0 (striping), recovering after a drive
failure is a problem since you don't have any redundancy, but if you didn't
replace any drives etc, this could just be gvinum fooling around. In that
case, doing a 'gvinum setstate -f up data.p0.s3' should get the volume up
again.
