Hi, recenlty I had a strange incident. I have a simple web server with two gmirror'ed disks (ad4 & ad6). One of the disks (ad6) failed and gmirror detached one, but the funny thing is - it detached the good one (ad4) so after a few seconds the server crashed. I've rebooted the server and once again - it detached the "failed" ad4 drive and crashed in a few seconds with ad6. I detached the bad one (ad6) by hands (phisically). Bingo! ad4 works just fine.
Could anyone please explain me what is the logic of gmirror? How does it decide which drive has failed and how could I influence it to behave correctly? Balance algorithm I use is round-robin, the controller: <Intel 6300ESB SATA150 controller> the disks: 76319MB <ST380817AS/3.42> [155061/16/63] at ata2-master SATA150 Any ideas? Thank you in advance!
