I'm attempting to create a striped raid out of 2 drives of equal size. =
I created the /etc/vinum.conf file which reads as:
drive da2 device /dev/da2s1e
drive da3 device /dev/da3s1e
volume stripe
plex org striped 256k
sd length 17272m drive da2
sd length 17272m drive da3
After I created the config file I started up vinum and typed:
vinum > create -f /etc/vinum.conf
vinum > quit
Once I did that I created a new fs and mounted it:
newfs -v /dev/vinum/stripe =20
mount /dev/vinum/stripe /stripe
All worked fine, I now had a 36GB striped raid which I could access. So =
after everything seemed to work fine I created a spot in the fstab =
reading:
/dev/vinum/stripe /stripe ufs rw 2 2
I restarted the computer and it didn't work....it came up saying that =
there was an inconsistency with fstab and kicked me into single-user =
mode.
I removed that line from fstab and restarted once more, once it =
restarted and I logged into root I tried to mount /stripe and it came up =
saying '/dev/vinum/stripe not configured' . I then started up vinum =
again and typed 'list' and it showed that nothing was getting striped it =
seemed. In order to get things working again I had to do the 'create -f =
/etc/vinum.conf' command in vinum, create the newfs and then mount it. =
Is there a way to make it so that I don't have to keep doing this =
everytime I start up the computer.
Any help would be much appreciated,=20
Thx,
Dave
