FreeBSD and Hot Swap rebuild on SCSI disks.

[Edy Lie]

Greetings,

I have setup the following:

FreeBSD 4.8 and using Adaptec 2100s for the SCSI RAID 5.

Currently there are 5 harddisks which have been setup as RAID 5 and 1
harddisk acts as hot spare.

Interestingly, is there any tool on FreeBSD which allows to rebuild the
array on the fly or is it a must to reboot and goto Adaptec 2100s SMOR
to rebuild? If latter is the only option it defects the purpose of HOT
SWAP capabilities.

Anyone using Adaptec 2100s on FreeBSD please share some informations on
how do you manage the array.

TIA!

Regards,
Edy
