Yes. It is because gstripe store metadata in the last provider's sector and if two providers ends in the same place - you have a problem. In that case, you should create you stripe by adding '-h' option, which will add provider's name to metadata, so only this provider will be connected to your stripe. +> - What does error=3D17 mean in the logging? errno(2): EEXIST - File exists. It means that gstripe detects two (or more) providers which claim to be your stripe components. --=20 Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.FreeBSD.org pjd@FreeBSD.org http://garage.freebsd.pl FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?
