Hi, I have gone through the docs on this but am just missing a couple of points
conceptually, and would be grateful for any help.
Basically i have created two slices on two IDE drives and mounted them
(through fdisk, label etc), and had that all up and running correctly.
I then went into Vinum in interactive mode and (hopefully) created a
mirror by typing
mirror -d /dev/ad0s2d /dev/ad1s1d . It then gave me successful
messages and gave the drive a name and said it's "up".
I'm just wondering after this point, can i just type quit and it's up
and running? I noticed on reboot the directories that were my mount
point for these partitions say they are "not a directory" now. Do i
need to go on and mount the mirror? Or did i make a mistake mounting
these partitions before creating the mirror. How do i utilize it after
issuing the mirror command.
Many thanks in advance.
