Hi there,
I have the following vinum volume that I want to remove.
The disks will be reassigned to other machines.
vinum -> l -r dataVol
V dataVol State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 65 GB
P dataVol.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 2 Size: 65 GB
S dataVol.p0.s0 State: up PO: 0 B Size: 28 GB
S dataVol.p0.s1 State: up PO: 28 GB Size: 37 GB
After reading the man page, I am under the impression that
I am supposed to first use the stop command.
vinum -> stop -r dataVol
vinum -> l -r dataVol
V dataVol State: down Plexes: 1 Size: 65 GB
P dataVol.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 2 Size: 65 GB
S dataVol.p0.s0 State: up PO: 0 B Size: 28 GB
S dataVol.p0.s1 State: up PO: 28 GB Size: 37 GB
Umm... The stop command doesn't seem to work recursively, even
when the -r flag is specified.
vinum -> rm -r dataVol
Can't remove dataVol: Device busy (16)
vinum -> l -r dataVol
V dataVol State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 65 GB
P dataVol.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 2 Size: 65 GB
S dataVol.p0.s0 State: up PO: 0 B Size: 28 GB
S dataVol.p0.s1 State: up PO: 28 GB Size: 37 GB
Did I misunderstand the sequence required to remove a vinum
volume?
BTW, this machine is running RELENG_4 checked out on
Mar 1, 2003. Thanks.
