We could only connect a consumer to destination provider to be able to detect orphans and just create symbolic link to destination provider from under /dev/vol/... What do you think? In addition it will clarify the source provider if someone is interested. I can handle this if you agree with me and reimplement existing geom_vol_ffs to be able to handle many label formats in clean way. --=20 Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.FreeBSD.org pjd@FreeBSD.org http://garage.freebsd.pl FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?
