I recently had a server crash while restoring some files onto a data
filesystem (/home1).

/home1 is mirrored via SDS.

After the crash the server wouldn't reboot because of inconsistencies
in /home1.

In order to get the server to boot up I ran fsck manually on the 2
individual slices in the /home1 mirror. This did the trick and I was
able to boot the server. Everything is running OK now, but my metastat
output now shows:

d34: Mirror
    Submirror 0: d14
      State: Needs maintenance
    Submirror 1: d24
      State: Needs maintenance
    Pass: 1
    Read option: roundrobin (default)
    Write option: parallel (default)
    Size: 62916642 blocks

d14: Submirror of d34
    State: Needs maintenance
    Invoke: metareplace d34 c0t0d0s7 <new device>
    Size: 62916642 blocks
    Stripe 0:
        Device Start Block Dbase State Hot Spare
        c0t0d0s7 0 No Maintenance

d24: Submirror of d34
    State: Needs maintenance
    Invoke: after replacing "Maintenance" components:
                metareplace d34 c0t8d0s7 <new device>
    Size: 62916642 blocks
    Stripe 0:
        Device Start Block Dbase State Hot Spare
        c0t8d0s7 0 No Last Erred

hsp001: is empty

Any ideas how to fix up SDS...?
