The growfs maintainers know about the problem, and are working on a
solution.  We learned about that problem too late before 5.0R was due,
so since a quick fix couldn't be produced in time, i think they are
now looking for an overall better integration of growfs and newfs
(which are very similar in nature).

vinum & growfs

[Alex Deiter]

I get an error on 5.0-RELEASE when trying to grow vinum volume:

# growfs /dev/vinum/test
growfs: DIOCGDINFO failed

On http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.0R/errata.html i see:

growfs(8) no longer works on  vinum(4) volumes (and presumably, on 
geom(4) entities) since these subsystems no longer fake disklabels, but 
 growfs(8) insists on examining a label.

Say me please, sometime growfs will learn to work with vinum volumes ?

Thanks!
