I'm attempting to create a striped raid = out of 2=20 drives of equal size. I created the /etc/vinum.conf file which = reads=20 as:

drive da2 device=20 /dev/da2s1e

drive da3 device=20 /dev/da3s1e

volume = stripe

= plex org=20 striped 256k

=20 sd length 17272m drive = da2

=20 sd length 17272m drive da3

After I created the config file I = started up vinum=20 and typed:

vinum > create -f = /etc/vinum.conf

vinum > = quit

Once I did that I created a new fs and = mounted=20 it:

newfs -v=20 /dev/vinum/stripe

mount = /dev/vinum/stripe=20 /stripe

All worked fine, I now had a 36GB = striped raid=20 which I could access. So after everything seemed to work fine I = created a=20 spot in the fstab reading:

=20 /dev/vinum/stripe /stripe =20 ufs rw 2 = 2

I restarted the computer and it = didn't=20 work....it came up saying that there was an inconsistency with fstab and = kicked=20 me into single-user mode.

I removed that line from fstab and = restarted once=20 more, once it restarted and I logged into root I tried to mount /stripe = and it=20 came up saying '/dev/vinum/stripe not configured' . I then = started up=20 vinum again and typed 'list' and it showed that nothing was getting = striped it=20 seemed. In order to get things working again I had to do the = 'create -f=20 /etc/vinum.conf' command in vinum, create the newfs and then mount = it. Is=20 there a way to make it so that I don't have to keep doing this everytime = I start=20 up the computer.

Any help would be much appreciated, =

Thx,

Dave
