Dear FreeBSD friends, I believe something is missing in chapter 16.4.3 (Rebuilding ATA RAID1 Arrays) of the handbook. step 3 tells to reattach the disk as a spare. the command to use is: # atacontrol attach 3 But this is not enough to rebuild the array, e.g. the next step: Rebuild the array: # atacontrol rebuild ar0 In between `atacontrol attach 3` and `atacontrol rebuild ar0` there should be the following command: # atacontrol addspare ar0 ad6 Otherwise the rebuild command will do nothing!!! Attach only reverses detach!! addspare completes the array and rebuild makes a synchronize. I hope some people can confirm this. I already found some confirmation on the net: http://joseph.randomnetworks.com/archives/category/how-to/ -- Met vriendelijke groeten, With kind regards, Mit freundlichen Gruessen, De jrus wah, Willy ************************************* W.K.
