Hi,
I'm putting together a vinum disk subsystem.
For testing I started out with 4 SCSI disks
and built a stripped plex and everything
worked great. This config had 2 drives
in the chassis and 2 drives in an external
case.
So I get a 4-connector SCSI cable for the
chassis and add two more SCSI drives (that
I've previously formatted and put ufs on).
FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE boots and recognizes
all the drives (see dmesg at end).
When I edited the disklabel (disklabel -e da4)
I didn't see the
(e: .... 4.2BSD ...)
setting under "unused". I thought that odd
because I've previously formatted, partitioned,
labeled, mounted, and tested every drive.
So I thought I'd let sysinstall have at it
put ufs on again, just to make sure. So
I redo the partitioning and labeling and
I still have vinum running on 4 disks and
the two new ones are mounted separately.
I went to disklabel again and still no
4.2BSD setting.
So now I think it must need to be re-
formatted. So I fire off camcontrol
#camcontrol format da4; camcontrol format da5
and see:
camcontrol: cam_real_open_device: couldn't open passthrough device /dev/pass4
cam_real_open_device: No such file or directory
camcontrol: cam_real_open_device: couldn't open passthrough device /dev/pass5
cam_real_open_device: No such file or directory
Now I'm really confused! Why can I not see the
4.2BSD disklabel? Until I can set that, I won't
be able to create a vinum volume. Ultimately
I want a 7 drive vinum volume but cannot get past
4 drives.
Your help is greatly appreciated...
