no. > expected or did I miss something? Maybe the "serial" > relates to hardware raid? kinda. for hw raids, bioctl shows the serial numbers of the physical disks there - since they don't show up as indivudual disks anywhere else really that is the way to get said serials. now for softraid the raid set is constructed out of partitions, not raw disks, and the disks holding said partitions show up as regular disks, so there is no serial in the bioctl output for softraid. > # bioctl -hv sd2 > Volume Status Size Device > softraid0 0 Rebuild 458G sd2 RAID1 20% done > 0 Online 458G 0:0.0 noencl <sd0d> > 'unknown serial' > 1 Rebuild 458G 0:1.0 noencl <sd1d> > 'unknown serial' -- Henning Brauer, h...@bsws.de, henn...@openbsd.org BS Web Services, http://bsws.de, Full-Service ISP Secure Hosting, Mail and DNS Services.
