Opps, not quite there. =A0It ran clean on the single disk. =A0But when I
add the other disk to the shadowset it reported the 4 blocks with
errors. =A0VMS does not want to give these up without a fight.

I'm am going to init/erase that disk.

What happens if you shadow and mount an init'd disk (i.e. nothing on it)?

Aren't you init'ing and then restoring your backup to it?

I did an init/erase, and restored the backup. But for the second
disk, I did a init/erase and just put into the shadow set. I tried
putting the second disk in the shadowset without an init/erase but it
still had the 4 bad blocks, so I did and init/erase on it.

I never tried a plain old init.

I still don't quite understand what you are asking, or why.
