Hi, I created a raid-1 with 2 SATA disks with the controller VIA 6420 SATA150 from the bios setup. FreeBSD detects the array with ar0 and I can use /dev/ar0s1 to mount my data on FreeBSD 6.0-BETA4. atapci0: <VIA 6420 SATA150 controller> port 0x9000-0x9007,0x9400-0x9403,0x9800-0x9807,0x9c00-0x9c03,0xa000-0xa00f,0xa400-0xa4ff irq 20 at device 15.0 on pci0 ata2: <ATA channel 0> on atapci0 ata3: <ATA channel 1> on atapci0 [...] ad4: 194481MB <Maxtor 6L200M0 BANC1G10> at ata2-master SATA150 ad6: 194481MB <Maxtor 6L200M0 BANC1G10> at ata3-master SATA150 ar0: 194480MB <VIA Tech V-RAID RAID1> status: READY ar0: disk0 READY (master) using ad4 at ata2-master ar0: disk1 READY (mirror) using ad6 at ata3-master %mount | grep ar0s1 /dev/ar0s1 on /raid (ufs, local, soft-updates) %df -h | grep ar0s1 /dev/ar0s1 184G 54G 115G 32% /raid If I remove one of the disks, FreeBSD can't mount /dev/ar0s1 and I see these errors: ad4: 194481MB <Maxtor 6L200M0 BANC1G10> at ata2-master SATA150 ar0: 194480MB <VIA Tech V-RAID RAID1> status: BROKEN ar0: disk0 DOWN no device found for this subdisk ar0: disk1 DOWN no device found for this subdisk and # ls /dev/ar* /dev/ar0 AFAIK, if one disk fails, I can continue to use the raid-1 and mount ar0s1 (corret me, if I'm wrong). How can I solve this problem? dmesg is attached. Thanks for your help. Let me know if you need more information. Regards -- There's this old saying: "Give a man a fish, feed him for a day.
