Help! Vinum drive crashed

[Marc Smits]

Dear Vinum-know-it-all / Greg:-)

Vinum reported one my disks in the volume has crashed. As mentioned in the thread
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2004-May/045942.html I did 2 things.

1. vinum -> setstate up BigDisk0.p0.s0 BigDisk0.p0
FreeBSD did not like that and decided to reboot once I tried to mount /dev/vinum/BigDisk0

2. vinum -> create -f /etc/vinum.conf
Now I have an extra plex in the volume BigDisk0.p0, instead of an extra
volume which I can mount.

As for now I assume I can still get the voluma back up and get my data
back. Can anyone tell me how?

Thanks a lot, Marc
