(UPDATED DETAILS)Re:Vinumquestion"Incompatiblesectorsizes"

Tue Dec 16 12:26:29 PST 2003

A good and diciplined user woul have waited for a knowledgeable
answer, but I can't get no rest until this is solved so I tried to
follow the steps in "Replacing a failed Vinum drive
" and managed to get a drive up and running to replace the faulty one.

Now the current status of my vinum is:

*** Revive of raid.p0.s0 has stalled ***

And when I start it with "start raid.p0.s0" I get the message: 
"Can't start raid.p0.s0: Input/Output error (5)"
"*** Warning: configuration updates are disabled. ***"

I certainly hope I didn't increase the damage during the eves events,
and that there still are some hope left.

 |  | First let me assure you that I do not blame neither you or any

 |  | one involved in the vinum project. I am perfectly aware that
 | nothing
 |  | beats a good tape when it comes to data recovery.
 |  | 
 |  | Thansk for putting interest in my problem, I have tried to write
 | down
 |  | all information you requested:
 |  | 
 |  | > What problems are you having? 
 |  | One of my drives are flagged down. Vinum reports that drive as
 |  | "referenced". The other two drives in the RAID-5 is up.
According
 | to
 |  | "vinum list" my subdisks are:
 |  | s0 State: R 0%
 |  | s1 State: crashed
 |  | s2 State: stale

 |  |  | 
 |  |  | Backups are always good.  But we can probably recover the
data. 
 |  | First
 |  |  | I need the information I ask for on
