Gvinum stale

Hello!

I just setup RAID1 mirroring with gvinum on FreeBSD 5.3 release.

This is my message

Dec  1 16:11:38 morana kernel: GEOM_VINUM: subdisk swap.p0.s0 is up
Dec  1 16:11:38 morana kernel: GEOM_VINUM: subdisk root.p0.s0 is up
Dec  1 16:11:38 morana kernel: GEOM_VINUM: subdisk var.p0.s0 is up
Dec  1 16:11:38 morana kernel: GEOM_VINUM: subdisk usr.p0.s0 is up
Dec  1 16:11:38 morana kernel: GEOM_VINUM: subdisk swap.p1.s0 is stale
Dec  1 16:11:38 morana kernel: GEOM_VINUM: subdisk root.p1.s0 is stale
Dec  1 16:11:38 morana kernel: GEOM_VINUM: subdisk var.p1.s0 is stale
Dec  1 16:11:38 morana kernel: GEOM_VINUM: subdisk usr.p1.s0 is stale


When I was adding second disk and use start all subdisk was up and I 
also check it with fsck, but after shutdown -r now, second disk goes in 
stale state. If I try to start again it fails with error

gvinum -> start var.p1.s0
gvinum: can't start: cannot start 'var.p1.s0'

What can be done here. On some other machine same setup steps works ok.

regards,

Uros
