[squid-users] ./squid -z questions

Hi, I have a caching server with 6 SCSI disks. The first disk contains the
squid application and kernel while the other 5 are just cache storage.

Some times back, the first disk crashed and I recreated the OS and squid
application on another similar machine and put the disk back. I ensure that
partitioning in the cache_dir (inside squid.conf) is the same as what is
partitioned inside the 5 cache disk.

Lately I notice the following:

2004/06/28 10:05:40| diskHandleWrite: FD 1028: disk write error: (28) No
space left on device
2004/06/28 10:05:40| storeUfsWriteDone: got failure (-6)
2004/06/28 10:05:40| storeSwapOutFileClosed: dirno 12, swapfile 0004689A,
errflag=-6
        (28) No space left on device

/dev/sde3 17359220 15373680 1089516 94%
/usr/local/squid/cache14
/dev/sde4 17359220 16283368 179828 100%
/usr/local/squid/cache15
/dev/sdf1 17359192 15388208 1074964 94%
/usr/local/squid/cache16

I've set the low and high mark from 90 and 93 to

cache_swap_low 80
cache_swap_high 85

but they do'nt seems to help. I am wondering if I need to force squid
recreate the cache directories (by using squid -z). But would I loose the
cache data? Do I need to remove the existing directories first? Can I use
squid -z without creating directories in the harddisks frst (i.e. let squid
create them based on the cache_dir lists)

Thanks.
