I am planning to move from 7.0-REL-i386 to 8.0-REL-amd64 in the near future. My OS drive is a single ata-133 80gb drive, and my data drives are four 1.5TB SATA drives. 6TB total, configured as 2x 3TB 'gstripe' volumes, and I am using gmirror to mirror those gstripe volumes. I hope that makes sense. In any case, I'd like to just unplug the drives, do my upgrade, plug the drives back in, and startup the array as I have in 7.0. I'm planning to just do a fresh install of 8.0 on a new SATA 80GB drive and make that my new OS drive. Does anyone foresee any serious problems with this plan? I know doing a whole version upgrade can sometimes introduce bugs when dealing with old setups, so I just want to cover my bases prior to the work. I am backing up this system to another system, so if I end up losing the data or having to rebuild the array, that's fine, it just sucks having to copy the 2TB of data over the wire afterward. Thanks for your help! ++AMARU _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
