I can't seem to get gmirror insert to work. I have these partitions /dev/ad8s2d and /dev/ad10s2d that I want to mirror (among others). I did as follows (from single user mode): $ gmirror label -v -b load var /dev/ad8s2d $ gmirror insert var ad10s2d But ad10s2d fails to synchronize (error 1), and the mirror stays degraded (even though there's only 1 partition in it; isn't that a bit odd?). The exact output is (typed over from the console): GEOM_MIRROR[1]: Adding disk ad10s2d to var. GEOM_MIRROR[0]: Provider ad10s2d detected. GEOM_MIRROR[0]: Device var: rebuilding provider ad10s2d. GEOM_MIRROR[0]: Synchronization request failed (error=1). ad10s2d[WRITE(offset=0, length=131072)] GEOM_MIRROR[0]: Device var: provider ad10s2d disconnected. GEOM_MIRROR[0]: Device var: rebuilding provider ad10s2d stopped. GEOM_MIRROR[1]: Consumer mirror/var destroyed. GEOM_MIRROR[1]: Consumer ad10sd destroyed. The same goes for /, /usr and /home. I'd like to get this working. In addition I would like to create some striped partitions in a similar way; for /tmp, /usr/obj and /usr/ports - I think those'll be run async w/o softupdates. Any help appreciated.
