-.Sh NAME
-.Nm ccd
-.Nd Concatenated Disk Driver
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Cd "pseudo-device ccd 4"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-driver provides the capability of combining one or more disks/partitions
-into one virtual disk.
-.Pp
-This document assumes that you're familiar with how to generate kernels,
-how to properly configure disks and pseudo-devices in a kernel
-configuration file, and how to partition disks.
-.Pp
-Note that the
-.Sq raw
-partitions of the disks
-.Pa should not
-be combined. Each component partition should be offset at least one
-cylinder from the beginning of the component disk. This avoids potential
-conflicts between the compoent disk's disklabel and the
-.Nm ccd's
-disklabel. The kernel will only allow component partitions of type FS_BSDFFS.
-.Pp
-In order to compile in support for the ccd, you must add a line similar
-to the following to your kernel configuration file:
-.Bd -unfilled -offset indent
-pseudo-device ccd 4 # concatenated disk devices
-.Ed
-.Pp
-The count argument is how many
-.Nm ccds
-memory is allocated for a boot time. In this example, no more than 4
-.Nm ccds
-may be configured.
-.Pp
-A
-.Nm ccd
-may be either serially concatenated or interleaved. If a
-.Nm ccd
-is interleaved correctly, a
-.Dq striping
-effect is achieved, which can increase performance. The optimum interleave
-factor is typically the size of a track. Since the interleave factor
-is expressed in units of DEV_BSIZE, one must account for sector sizes
-other than DEV_BSIZE in order to calculate the correct interleave.
-The kernel will not allow an interleave factor less than the size
-of the largest component sector divided by DEV_BSIZE.
-.Pp
-Note that best performance is achieved if all compent disks have the same
-geometery and size. Optimum striping cannot occur with different
-disk types.
-.Pp
-There is a run-time utility that is used for configuring
-.Nm ccds .
-See
-.Xr ccdconfig 8
-for more information.
-.Sh WARNINGS
-If just one (or more) of the disks in a
-.Nm ccd
-fails, the entire
-file system will be lost.
-.Sh FILES
-/dev/{,r}ccd* - ccd device special files.
-.Pp
-.Sh HISTORY
-The concatenated disk driver was originally written at the University of
-Utah.
