Re: raid 1+0 using veritas?

sure, but its been awhile since I set it up...if I remember correctly the key is to set up your disks into two seperate plexs, as opposed to setting up disk groups. Could you hook me up with a vxprint and vxdisk list?

from the looks of the vxassist man page the problem might be that you are using "concat-mirror" vs "stripe-mirror"

maybe :
vxassist--

     convert   Converts a volume layout to a mirror-stripe from a
               stripe-mirror,   or  from  a  mirror-stripe  to  a
               stripe-mirror. Also converts to mirror-concat from
               a  concat-mirror,  or  from  a  mirror-concat to a
               concat-mirror.

might cure what ails ya.
