RAID 5 mount points don't automount on boot

Hi,

I set up a RAID 5 configuration and for some reason the volumes won't mount when the system boots. I have to manually mount them from the command line and all is fine.

Here's the vfstab entries:
#device device mount FS fsck mount mount
#to mount to fsck point type pass at boot options
#
fd - /dev/fd fd - no -
/proc - /proc proc - no -
/dev/dsk/c0t10d0s1 - - swap - no logging
/dev/dsk/c0t10d0s0 /dev/rdsk/c0t10d0s0 / ufs 1 no logging
/dev/dsk/c0t10d0s7 /dev/rdsk/c0t10d0s7 /export/home ufs 2 yes logging
/devices - /devices devfs - no -
ctfs - /system/contract ctfs - no -
objfs - /system/object objfs - no -
swap - /tmp tmpfs - yes -
/dev/md/dsk/d0 /dev/md/rdsk/d0 /d0 ufs yes 3 logging
/dev/md/dsk/d1 /dev/md/rdsk/d1 /d1 ufs yes 4 logging
/dev/dsk/c1t2d0s0 /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0s0 /ext ufs yes 5 logging
# hercules:/d1/wp - /d1/wp nfs - yes rw
# hercules:/mnt/nfs_share/html - /mnt/nfs_share/html nfs - yes rw

The 2 volumes that should mount but won't are /dev/md/dsk/d0 and /dev/md/dsk/d1

Is there anything wrong with the entries and if not why wouldn't it automount?

Thanks in advance,

Robert

You have:
Code:
/dev/md/dsk/d0 /dev/md/rdsk/d0 /d0 ufs yes 3 logging
/dev/md/dsk/d1 /dev/md/rdsk/d1 /d1 ufs yes 4 logging

You should have:
Code:
/dev/md/dsk/d0 /dev/md/rdsk/d0 /d0 ufs 3 yes logging
/dev/md/dsk/d1 /dev/md/rdsk/d1 /d1 ufs 4 yes logging

The columns in the vfstab are:
Code:
 device       device       mount      FS      fsck    mount      mount
 to mount     to fsck      point      type    pass    at boot    options

Dude,

Thanks a bunch. Now if I can get my other problem solved (DT Messaging server won't start) I'll be in good shape.
