1) Try upgrading the system (to 8.1-STABLE). There have been numerous changes to ZFS on RELENG_8 since March 5th. I don't know if any of them would address your problem. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zio.c#rev1.8.2.4 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zio.c#rev1.8.2.3 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zio.c#rev1.8.2.2 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zio.c#rev1.8.2.1 2) Try bringing the system down into single-user mode and zeroing out the first and last 64kbytes of each gpt/diskXX (you'll have to figure this out on your own, I'm not familiar with GPT) so that the ZFS metadata goes away. Footnote: can someone explain to me how ZFS would, upon reboot, know that /tmp/sparsefile[12].img are part of the pool? How would ZFS taste metadata in this situation? -- | Jeremy Chadwick j...@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
