    On one of our servers, we have a 3 way mirrored volume, with 3 way mirrored
    logs. Unfortunately, when it was installed, all the volumes were on the same
    array, and hence the same controller.

    And unfortunately, that controller has now failed, putting our disksuite
    mirrors all into a 'failed' state. It seems that we're having immense
    difficulty in getting the disks to an 'OK' state.

    Can anyone point me at a website or tutorial to get disksuite to 'recheck' all
    the volumes? I've had a suggestion of metareplacing volumes with themselves,
    but that sounds dubiously like they're going to try and resync, fail (because
    they can't read) and make a mess).

    Or perhaps offer other advice on how to recover from this state? As ever,
    murphy's law has kicked in with our backup recovery process.

    Cheers,
    Ed Rolison.
