The output of 2.7 and 2.8 is different, because those disks aren't really equal in size. This has nothing to do with gmirror. Try: # diskinfo -v /dev/ad[46] and compare number of sectors of each disk. Good luck. --=20 Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.wheel.pl pjd@FreeBSD.org http://www.FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?
