Dear FreeBSD friends,
I believe something is missing in chapter 16.4.3 (Rebuilding ATA RAID1
Arrays) of the handbook.
step 3 tells to reattach the disk as a spare.
the command to use is:
# atacontrol attach 3
But this is not enough to rebuild the array, e.g. the next step:
Rebuild the array:
# atacontrol rebuild ar0
In between `atacontrol attach 3` and `atacontrol rebuild ar0` there
should be the following command:
# atacontrol addspare ar0 ad6
Otherwise the rebuild command will do nothing!!!
Attach only reverses detach!! addspare completes the array and rebuild
makes a synchronize.
I hope some people can confirm this. I already found some confirmation
on the net: http://joseph.randomnetworks.com/archives/category/how-to/

Met vriendelijke groeten,
With kind regards,
Mit freundlichen Gruessen,
De jrus wah,
Willy
