I'm trying to get to work RAID-0 (Striping) on 5.2.1-Release. The two hdds I'm using are slightly different (38162MB and 39079MB) If I set vinum to use the same size for both it works nicely, but if I try to use all the space for the second drive I get this error when trying to newfs the volume: newfs: wtfs: 65536 bytes at sector 156562592: Inappropriate ioctl for device If I create a UFS FS on this drive it works fine. I also try to use the second drive smaller than the first one and when I newfs this new volume it stays frozen for some seconds and then I get the error: newfs: wtfs: 512 bytes at sector 156282879: Input/output error Is this because when using vinum the discs have to be the same size or am I missing something? The configuration for vinum I'm using is as follows: drive ad0 device /dev/ad0s1 drive ad1 device /dev/ad1s1 volume stripe ~ plex org striped 256k ~ sd length 38160m drive ad0 ~ sd length 38150m drive ad1 I got this from some examples I found. I just change the size for the ad drive. I'm not subscribe to the list so please answear to my email. Thanks, - -- Fernando Sanchez Dpto.
