Try to overwrite the first few sectors of your spare disk (ad6) with zeroes. Possibly there were some bits from your old ataraid or your raid-controller left. You can do this by using the 'dd' command or a tool from your hardware vendor. If your disk is "clean" retry the addspare and then rebuild your mirror. # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad6 bs=512 count=128 # atacontrol addspare 0 ad6 # atacontrol rebuild 0 HTH, ch - -- Christian Hiris <4711_at_chello.at> | OpenPGP KeyID 0x3BCA53BE OpenPGP-Key at hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net and http://pgp.mit.edu -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBgqaL09WjGjvKU74RAtI3AJwMvxvD1svk2hJUZQl1Du+5BDlK+QCcD4Xb DtXfm3hUe3Plo6bYjbku00o= =Vvqh -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----Received on Fri Oct 29 2004 - 18:22:38 UTC
