I have just noted the following: --- # vinum list 2 drives: D d1 State: up Device /dev/ad1s1e Avail: 0/39079 MB (0%) D d2 State: up Device /dev/ad2s1e Avail: 0/39079 MB (0%) 1 volumes: V vm1 State: up Plexes: 2 Size: 38 GB 2 plexes: P vm1.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 1 Size: 38 GB P vm1.p1 C State: faulty Subdisks: 1 Size: 38 GB 2 subdisks: S vm1.p0.s0 State: up PO: 0 B Size: 38 GB S vm1.p1.s0 State: stale PO: 0 B Size: 38 GB # --- For some reason one of the plexes is "faulty", and the subdisk is "stale". I would like to revive the stale subdisk, but without interrupting current processing on the server. If I understand the man page correctly, the corect command would be: # vinum start -i x -S y vm1.p1.s0 This should "revive" the subdisk and eventually return the subdisk and plex to the "up" state. Perhaps someone could also recommend reasonable values for x and y? I thought of: # vinum start -i 100 -S 65536 vm1.p1.s0 Does that look OK?
