hi,
I just upgraded to freebsd 7.3 on amd64 and I'm having trouble attaching
a geli device. I am using gstripe to created a striped array with two
disks and then using geli to create an encryption layer on top of it.
It was working with 7.2, but after an upgrade I'm running into this
error when I try and attach the geli device:
#geli attach -k key.file /dev/stripe/private
geli: Cannot read metadata from /dev/stripe/private: Invalid argument.
also gstripe dump gives:
#gstripe dump /dev/stripe/private
Can't read metadata from /dev/stripe/private: Invalid argument.
gstripe: Not fully done.
but gstripe status says:
#gstripe status private
Name Status Components
stripe/private UP ad8s2
ad12s2
and gstripe list gives:
#gstripe list private
Geom name: stripe

I didn't see anything in /usr/src/UPDATING about gstripe but I'm
wondering if the default stripe size or something changed between 7.2
and 7.3
anyone have any suggestions? Let me know if there is more relavent
data i should provide.
Thanks in advance.
