>Description:
Hello,

ZFS shows the disks labels when invoking zpool status, if a disk was removed 
(physically) and the server rebooted, a reordering of the disks is done, and it 
appears that the old label is used by a valid disk ( the slot of the removed 
disks don't contains any new disks)

ZFS reports it as follows :

          raidz2       DEGRADED     0     0     0

Notice the da21 and da27 drives.
the old disks da21/da27 are shown offline (because they were offlined and 
removed) but the reordering as assigned those labels to others running drives.

The problem is when performing a "zpool replace", "zpool replace" will pick the 
first label when attempting to replace a disk

example when replacing da21:

It picked up the da21 offline drive to replace because it was the first on the 
list.

That would be nice if we can choose exactly what drive from the pool we are 
going to replace.

Thanks you.
