shutdown -r / shutdown -h / reboot all hang and don't cleanly dismount
Hello -STABLE@,
So I've seen this situation seemingly randomly on a number of both 
physical 9.1 boxes as well as VMs for I would say 6-9 months at least. 
  I finally have a physical box here that reproduces it consistently 
that I can reboot easily (ie; not a production/client server).
No matter what I do:
reboot
shutdown -p
shutdown -r
This specific server will stop at "All buffers

Problems with network in jail
Hi all,
Is it mandatory to add device mem to jails to enable network via the gateway?
Left ezjail with FreeBSD-6.3 (and a hardware replacement of my server)
and am now starting again with FreeBSD-7.1.
Early this week, I upgraded from 7.0 to 7.1 (not having 'used' jails
on 7.0). After creating the jail with
  `ezjail-admin update -i`
I created a 'ports build' jail

gmirror: writes are faster than reads
Hi Guys,
Has somebody encountered (significantly) different read/write speeds
when using gmirror?
I have 2xWD WD30EFRX RED drives which are configured as follows:

doveadm: Fatal: open(/dev/tty)
I received this message today, and remembered, you can't do that...
$ doveadm pw -s SHA512-CRYPT
Enter new password: doveadm(dan): Fatal: open(/dev/tty) failed: No such 
file or directory

It seems if you have no tty, you can't create a password.  Surely there 
is a better way to do this?
Looking at the code, it's trying to open the tty and turn off echo.

bugged sysinstall, bsdlabel, zfs, gmirror - recept for disaster :)
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 -

FreeBSD 9 and PERC H200
I got a Dell T110-II server on 2013-July-19.  It has two 1Tbyte drives 
that the PERC H200 controls, RAID 1.  I tried to install 
FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE from a DVD from FreebsdMall.  The autopart segfaulted, 
evidently because it could not find any disks.  I think there is a PR 
about the segfaulting (bad bug, no messages).
I worked around the problem by going to the loader prompt when the initial

GEOM_RAID3: Device datos is broken, too few valid components
Hello list,
 Last night one disk of my desktop machine dead causing a hard lock of the
computer. It was a component of a mirror volume so it wasn't as serious as 
it initially looked. 
 Unfortunately, the metadata structure of my data partition (a geom raid3 
array with tree components	) seems to be corrupted by this hard lock,

Problems booting into ZFS on recent stable/9
I had a sparc64 (Netra X1) running a stable/9 from late March 2013.  Actually, the kernel may've been a bit newer than that as I was working with folks to diagnose and repair some Netra-X1 specific issues.  But, ZFS worked fine.  I have two pools, zroot as a RAID1 (using equally sized partitions at the front of two large disks), and a zdata that is a large pool of the remaining space of both

Panic in nfs/ffs after upgrade from 6.2 to 6.3-RELEASE
Hello,
This file server was upgraded from 6.2-RELEASE-p$something to
6.3-RELEASE-p3 (current RELENG_6_3 sources via csup) on August, 11 and
rebooted to the new kernel on August, 12. The school is closed due to
holidays. The only load is mail delivery to Maildirs via NFS from
another server (just 50 mailboxes or so, none of them very busy) and
nightly backups. I went there on August, 13 to perform

Multi-machine mirroring choices
With the introduction of zfs to FreeBSD 7.0, a door has opened for more
mirroring options so I would like to get some opinions on what direction
I should take for the following scenario.
Basically I have 2 machines that are "clones" of each other (master and
slave) wherein one will be serving up samba shares. Each server has one
disk to hold the OS (not mirrored) and then 3 disks, each
