Hello Community I am a bit stuck with two disks which don't want to attach to a zpool after being removed from the pool.
Story: We have a KVM-VM running OpenIndiana on a Linux host. the Guest VM has a Zpool with about 10 disks. Passed through from the host via virtio. After a Host Reboot Linux decided to switch around the disk names. (Linux likes to to that) Thus the directly passed through disks to the Guest got switched around aswell. Three devices seem to have been affected. two of them where hot spares so no data loss. I managed to get the Zpool working again by replacing the missing disk with c18t0d0. However c14t0d0 and c15t0d0 do not want to be added as hot spares anymore. c15t0d0 is an odd case If I try to access the disk with dd it says No such device or address. Same with zpool labelclear and friends. I tried to wipe every piece kind of zfs label on c14t0d0 including all partitions with format. If I now try to use format again to start from scratch It asks me to set the disk type only to tell me that the partition is in use. Does anybody know how to reset a disk like this short from dd'ing with zero the whole disk? Short from dd'ing the whole disks zero which are 3TB so.... I am out of ideas? Has anybody an idea what I could do with these disks to be able to attach them to the zpool ? Also everytime I try to do anything with c14t0d0 it says c18t0d0 (notice the name difference) is already part of the pool. Does anybody know why zpool thinks c14t0d0 is c18t0d0? Thanks in advance and Greetings Till _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
