If yes, do I still need to run the scr= ipt above to plumb the ggate devices, or -h does that for us? You don't need -h and you don't need to use gmirror in your script at all. There is currently no rc.d/ scripts for ggate, but you can check out freebsd-geom@ archives, I think someone post such scripts some time ago, but I haven't had time to look into it yet. --=20 Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.wheel.pl pjd@FreeBSD.org http://www.FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?
