You can't go back a line with vinum. Once you've entered it, it gets processed.

I find the configfile appropriate for initial confiurations. But what is the best method if one disk faults and gets replaced. Then I shouldn't need the overall confguration. Unfortunately the documentation is not that specific about this point, one should need only to recreate the subdisks which laid on the faulty disk after creating a vinum slice on the fresh disk, right? Or does vinum replicates itself after the failure onto the fresh disk? > > > I suspect one will not have a r/w filesystem in worst case scenarios > > for creating vinum createfiles (And even if, `ed` is not my friend.) > > Hmm.

To quote vinum(8): resetconfig The resetconfig command completely obliterates the vinum configu- ration on a system. Use this command only when you want to com- pletely delete the configuration. vinum will ask for confirma- tion: you must type in the words NO FUTURE exactly as shown: # vinum resetconfig WARNING! This command will completely wipe out your vinum configuration. All data will be lost. If you really want to do this, enter the text NO FUTURE Enter text -> NO FUTURE Vinum configuration obliterated As the message suggests, this is a last-ditch command. Don't use it unless you have an existing configuration which you never want to see again. Later: 3. Some of the commands currently supported by vinum are not really needed. For reasons which I don't understand, however, I find that users frequently try the label and resetconfig commands, though es- pecially resetconfig outputs all sort of dire warnings. Don't use these commands unless you have a good reason to do so. > # cat x > drive d1 device /dev/da1d > drive d2 device /dev/da2d > volume raid > plex org stripe 256k > sd length 50m drive d1 > sd length 50m drive d2 > vinum create x > ... > (Please note the missing 'd' in stripe) > > I get: > ..the panic.. > > Sigh. Agreed. *sigh*. I found about this problem last night, and I've fixed it, but I have only just committed it. It's a result of the change in the kernel address space. > BTW: Any chance that the create commands will work interactive from > within vinum? Not much.

Hmm. I suppose that might be an argument. But vinum(8) doesn't offer you much in the way of editing facilities either. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
