Correct. Which I thought was sorta the point, but could have
completely misunderstood it, sdf was restored from a "faulty" drive
that was out before the reshape. Whether I have 6 devices depends on
how picky things are. I've got 5 that should be in sync, the 6th not,
but it was involved in the reshape.
Short version, is I shot myself in the foot on this one. Reshape never
got anywhere, but need to try to revert and save what data I can.
Cheers,
Curt
