>Description:
when a raidframe parity rebuild is initiated with 'raidctl -P dev'
on a mirror, the iostat output incorrectly reports that both disks are
reading, and neither are writing:
device read KB/t r/s time MB/s write KB/t w/s time MB/s
wd4 64.00 168 0.63 10.49 0.00 0 0.63 0.00
wd6 64.00 168 0.59 10.49 0.00 0 0.59 0.00
raid0 0.00 0 0.00 0.00 0.00 0 0.00 0.00
clearly this is wrong ;)
when a reconstruct is initiated with 'raidctl -R component device',
iostat correctly reports that one disk is reading and the other is
writing.
>How-To-Repeat:
have an unclean raidframe mirror and watch iostat output after
/etc/rc.d/raidframeparity runs.
