Hello,
I got two equal disks ad10 and ad11 and want to use them as RAID1 via gmirror (I don't boot the system from them).
Some day I'd like to change my hardware config, installing additional SATA controller in my PC. My problem is that device names for my disks ad10 and ad11 will change to, say, ad12 and ad13 respectively.
Do I need to recreate my RAID1 ? or gmirror takes care about that and detects which disk to use?
After reading man 8 gmirror I still don't see how to deal with it...
Should I hardcode provider's names with "-h" option?
What happens in that situation for other geom classes like gconcat and gstripe ?
Thanks in advance,
Alex
