It is unlikely that this condition could ever occur. The only corrective
action for the detached volume is to reboot the system.

detached
• Description
A plex detach failed because the kernel log could not be flushed to
disk. As a result, the mirrored volume will become detached. This
could be caused by all the disks containing a kernel log going bad.
• Action
Correct the failed disks so that kernel logging can once again
function.
Detaching RAID-5 volume
vxvm:vxio:WARNING: detaching RAID-5 raidvol
• Description
Either a double-failure condition in the RAID-5 volume has been
detected in the kernel or some other fatal error is preventing further
use of the array.
• Action
If two or more drives were lost due to a controller or power failure,
then once the disks can be re-attached to the system, they should be
recovered using the vxrecover utility. Check the console for other
errors that may provide additional information as to the nature of the
failure.

RAID-5 raidvol at column column offset offset

column number and offset. This is caused by the failure of a disk or
an uncorrectable error occurring on that disk.
