geom Mirror VTOC-8

[Denny Schierz]

hi,

I don't get it:

From a NFS Live system:

freebsd# kldload geom_mirror

GEOM_MIRROR: Device mirror/gm0 launched (1/1).
GEOM: mirror/gm0: invalid VTOC8 label.
GEOM: ufsid/4ecb901e32e9d78f: invalid VTOC8 label.

freebsd# gmirror label -v -b round-robin gm0 /dev/da0a

gmirror: Can't store metadata on /dev/da0a: Operation not permitted.

freebsd# sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16

kern.geom.debugflags: 0 -> 16

freebsd# gmirror label -v -b round-robin gm0 /dev/da0a
gmirror: Can't store metadata on /dev/da0a: Operation not permitted.

The VTOC-8 was created with gpart -s vtoc8 


any suggestions?
