similar to: FreeBSD 8.3-R sysinstall does not "see" disks that are recognized during boot

I have a new system which includes a Plextor PX-740a DVD+-R/RW CD-R/RW drive attached to an Asus A8V-MX motherboard. When I try to use burncd to burn a cd, it writes all of the data, says "fixating CD, please wait.." and then reports burncd: ioctl(CDRIOCFIXATE): Input/output error Oddly enough, the CD seems to be usable. I can successfully burn the same file if I use cdrecord. The

A problem with 4.8 reported by myself and Aaron D. Gifford. Anyone in -stable who knows more? ******** I'm assembling a Compaq 1850R with attached storage system. For the built in scsi controller (sym), there are three drives internally on channel 1 + 5 drives externally on channel 2. During boot, I can see all disks being identified first by the machine itself and then in the early part

Hello all. I have a supermicro 16 bay box with a LSI 9211-8i card. We use it for temp data storage, and we wanted to try the l4z compression. After updating the source tree to r247839: and doing a make buildworld cycle all works fine. But at boot time we get some warnings. make_dev_physpath_alias: WARNING - Unable to alias gptid/281951f4-a996-11e1-83eb-00259061b51a to enc at

Hi. If I create a zpool with the following command: zpool create tank raidz2 da0 da1 da2 da3 da4 da5 da6 da7 and after a reboot the device names for some reason are changed so da2 and da5 are swapped, either by altering the LUN setting on the storage or by switching cables/swapping disks etc.? How will zfs handle that? Will it simply acknowledge that all devices are present and the pool is

I seem to have managed to end up with a pool that is confused abut its children disks. The pool is faulted with corrupt metadata: pool: d state: FAULTED status: The pool metadata is corrupted and the pool cannot be opened. action: Destroy and re-create the pool from a backup source. see: http://illumos.org/msg/ZFS-8000-72 scan: none requested config: NAME STATE

Hi All, I am looking at ZFS and I get that they call it RAIDZ which is similar to RAID 5, but what about RAID 10? Isn''t a RAID 10 setup better for data protection? So if I have 8 x 1.5tb drives, wouldn''t I: - mirror drive 1 and 5 - mirror drive 2 and 6 - mirror drive 3 and 7 - mirror drive 4 and 8 Then stripe 1,2,3,4 Then stripe 5,6,7,8 How does one do this with ZFS?

hail, I partitioned the disk this way: fdisk da0 ******* Working on device /dev/da0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=12161 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=12161 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Media sector size

i trust i am still new in freebsd, after go through all mail and book, = now seem to be more close, i got 3 server and a notebook to play with, = install no problem. cvsup not problem.make buildworld not problem. make = build kernel become,every machine i got different error code 1,=20 1-one got system full=20 2-one showing this sometime=20 > anyone know the best way to be one time success,not

Hello, I have been struglling with sysinstall, attempting to make it handle the geometry of some large SATA drives. After a lot of effort I decided to stop suffering and modified the program in order to circumvent the outdated limit of 65535 cylinders (see attached patch). I'm thinking about submitting a PR with a change request but I'd like to get some additional opinions first. I did

Hi, I had a power failure, and the on-disk configuration for vinum went bizarre. The logs read from disks are at http://biaix.org/pk/debug/ (log.$DEVICE files). The logs in da0 (barracuda) are the ones obviously wrong, I'm pretty sure the others are ok. Is this a 'virtually' dead drive? Can I force vinum to use the other's drive configuration? What's the less traumatic

Hi all, I have some problems with my gvinum setup after the system panic'ed. Afterwards the system fails finding the plexes to the subdisks (or at least that is what I can understand after having searched the gvinum source code for the error string in the DMESG log..) The machine is an IBM Netfinity 5000 and the internal HW self tests does not find any errors in the hw. Luckily my root is

Hello, I am having a problem with a new server running FreeBSD 4.9-PRERELEASE. Once every two days or so, it reboots itself.. there is no exact time of the day it reboots.. It rebooted itself at 4:25 PM EDT on 9/25, and 3:05 AM EDT on 9/29 (today). I thought it's the bad memory or some sort, so I've been running memtest today and memtest reports no sign of trouble with the memory...

I'm helping a friend setup a small mailserver using dovecot, and I'm finding a strange problem with checkpasswd that I haven't had on my servers. How is the following debug output even possible?

Hi all, I would like to knwon if with ZFS it''s possible to do something like that : http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/removeadisk.html meaning : I have a zpool with 48 disks with 4 raidz2 (12 disk). Inside those 48 disk I''ve 36x 3T and 12 x 2T. Can I buy new 12x4 To disk put in the server, add in the zpool, ask zpool to migrate all data on those 12 old disk on the new and

Hi there, We recently upgraded to 2.2.12 (the current version in FreeBSD's port tree), and are seeing these errors in our logs (not super frequently, but it happens): May 30 13:20:57 mail1 kernel: pid 15752 (imap), uid 1005: exited on signal 6 May 30 13:20:57 mail1 dovecot: imap(xxx): Fatal: master: service(imap): child 15752 killed with signal 6 (core not dumped - set service imap {

We recently upgraded our cluster to 2.1.3, to enable director proxying. Everything appears to be working fine for the most part; the only odd thing is that I'm seeing a lot of entries in the logs like this: Apr 7 02:18:05 mail-out06 dovecot: pop3-login: Fatal: master: service(pop3-login): child 75029 killed with signal 11 (core not dumped - set service pop3-login {

Hello there! Here's my story, hopefully some of you won't follow my steps and avoid some troubles :) Yesterday I've decided that's about time to test zfs functionality on my home server PC (i386 FreeBSD 7.1-pre) . A couple of weeks ago I bought new desktop PC (with SATA), so I had a bunch of PATA disks from old one to use in server. Lucky me - there was 3 HDD at size 40GB -
