Hi all,

I have set up a RAID5 with gvinum on 6-STABLE as of 2005-12-15 with a
Sil 3114 on PCI and a VIA 6420 onboard. It seems to work so far.

However, when I replace the Sil 3114 with a Promise PDC20375 (TX2 Plus)
it says on boot:
GEOM_VINUM: subdisk data.p0.s0 state change: down -> stale

data.p0.s0 is on ad8 which is the (only) Disk attached to the Promise.


# gvinum list -v | grep -A 4 data.p0.s0
Subdisk data.p0.s0:
                Size:     250058616832 bytes (238474 MB)
                State: stale
                Plex data.p0 at offset 0 (0  B)
                Drive seag0 (seag0) at offset 135680 (132 kB)


If I use the Sil 3114 again the RAID is up again.

Any idea what is wrong and what to try?

Thanks in advance
Marius
