Hi, all, while most cheap servers with SATA disks are not really hot-plug capable, changing a failed disk (either gmirror or zfs) was possible without a reboot by executing e.g. if ad4 failed:
atacontrol detach ata2 <change disks> atacontrol attach ata2 What is the proper equivalent for ahci, ada0 and camcontrol? Stop unit commands seem not to work with SATA disks, so I tried: <forcefully unplug "broken" disk> -> system logs about lost device, so far so good <insert new disk> camcontrol reset 1 camcontrol devlist -> disk still not there camcontrol rescan 1 -> command hangs <login to a second session, system still responsive> shutdown -r now -> system panics, eventually reboots I can provide details about the panic if someone is interested, but maybe there is a proper procedure already, which I simply missed. System is RELENG_8_2 amd64. ahci0: <Intel Cougar Point AHCI SATA controller> port 0xf090-0xf097,0xf080-0xf083,0xf070-0xf077,0xf060-0xf063,0xf020-0xf03f mem 0xfb921000-0xfb9217ff irq 19 at device 31.2 on pci0 ada0 at ahcich0 bus 0 scbus1 target 0 lun 0 ada0: <ST31000340NS SN05> ATA-8 SATA 1.x device ada0: 150.000MB/s transfers (SATA 1.x, UDMA6, PIO 8192bytes) ada0: Command Queueing enabled ada0: 953869MB (1953525168 512 byte sectors: 16H 63S/T 16383C) ada1 at ahcich1 bus 0 scbus2 target 0 lun 0 ada1: <ST31000340NS SN05> ATA-8 SATA 1.x device ada1: 150.000MB/s transfers (SATA 1.x, UDMA6, PIO 8192bytes) ada1: Command Queueing enabled ada1: 953869MB (1953525168 512 byte sectors: 16H 63S/T 16383C) Thanks, Patrick -- punkt.de GmbH * Kaiserallee 13a * 76133 Karlsruhe Tel. 0721 9109 0 * Fax 0721 9109 100 i...@punkt.de http://www.punkt.de Gf: Jürgen Egeling AG Mannheim 108285 _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
