>Description:
  The system is using gvinum on a version 6.0 Release to control a raid 5 configuration of four sata drives.  

  when I file is deleted from the raid volume the space is not added to the available space.

  when deleting a file from a regular partition the process happens as expected.
>How-To-Repeat:
I have deleted several files of varing size and ownership an the above action is always observed.
>Fix:
unknown
