create raidctl mirror with mounted source parition - UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

csgonan · #1 08-26-2007

I am mirroring a single partition drive with raidctl. The source partition was mounted when I created the mirror with raidctl -c c1t1d0 c1t3d0. The source disk was defined with s2 and s6 only.

I didn't think to umount it first.

Is there a problem with that?

you shouldn't need to umount it, but slice 2 would be the whole disk in the standard layout, you shouldn't use that one....

Thank you for your response. I didn't need to specify any partitions as I just did

raidctl -c c1t1d0 c1t3d0
