That could happen, depending on how many bad blocks the disk has,
but in this case, the numbers it reports, the numbers it says are
inconsistent, are from the original OmniOS install. I am surprised
that the original install would generate an inconsistent partition
arrangement.<br>
<br>
Now if I could just figure out how to format the disk, I could try
starting from scratch. Given the Illumos bug, I suppose I'll have to
pull it and format it on another machine.<br>

<div>A few weeks ago I was trying to image between two
apparently identical Western Digital RE2 400GB drives. They
were produced on the same day and their serial numbers were
only ~200 apart, but the disk utility reported block counts
that differed by about 20,000 (10 MB) and neither count
matched the one on the disk label.</div>

installed OmniOS r151008j last night, and today I wanted to
mirror rpool, but have a warning about the disk size. I have
2 Seagate 1TB disks (model ST1000LM024HN), and my OmniOS
install is on one of them. I told the install to use the
whole disk. Some version of OpenIndiana was previously
installed on the disk. The install went without any problem.<br>
<br>
c2t0d0 is the disk with OmniOS<br>
c2t1d0 is supposed to be its mirror<br>
<br>
To do the mirroring, following the directions in the wiki, I
did<br>
<br>
root@s1:~# pfexec fdisk -B c2t1d0p0<br>
root@s1:~# pfexec prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0s2 | pfexec
fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c2t1d0s2<br>
fmthard: Partition 2 specifies the full disk and is not
equal<br>
full size of disk. The full disk capacity is 1953407610
sectors.<br>
fmthard: Partition 2 specified as 1953471870 sectors
starting at 0<br>
does not fit. The full disk contains 1953407610 sectors.<br>
fmthard: New volume table of contents now in place.<br>
<br>
At this point I stopped, and haven't done the mirror.<br>
<br>
For the disk with the install, format reports<br>

Any idea what is going on?<br>

I tried to format the disk without the install (c2t1d0),
just to start with a completely fresh disk, but it doesn't
work. This appears to be a long-standing (11-month old)
