Yes, everything seems to be fine, but that was still scary, and the fix was not completely obvious. At the very least, I would suggest adding text such as the following to the page at http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-FD : When physically replacing the failed device, it is best to use the same

[zfs-discuss] Bug report: disk replacement confusion

2009-01-22 Thread Scott L. Burson
This is in snv_86. I have a four-drive raidz pool. One of the drives died. I replaced it, but wasn't careful to put the new drive on the same controller port; one of the existing drives wound up on the port that had previously been used by the failed drive, and the new drive wound up on the

[zfs-discuss] Moving pool to new controller?

2008-06-02 Thread Scott L. Burson
Hi, I'm running snv_86 on a Tyan S2882-D. This board has an onboard Sil3114 SATA controller which I have been using for my ZFS pool. Now I am trying to use Xen, and I am told that it doesn't work with IDE mode disk drivers; but the 3114 doesn't seem to have a native SATA mode (the BIOS just

Never mind, I see the 1420SA doesn't work. (Search Google for 1420sa solaris.) The Supermicro AOC-SAT2-MV8 seems to be the recommended choice. -- Scott This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list

To my astonishment, the problem has turned out to be a bad power supply after all. I didn't believe it until some of the SCSI drives in the same box started acting up also. Score: ZFS: 1, $180 OCZ PowerStream 600: 0 :) I would still argue that a salvager would be a useful addition to ZFS

Oooh, I see build 74 suffered from http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6603147 There's not much info on that bug page, and I certainly don't recall seeing the blown assertion message. Is it possible, nonetheless, that this is the cause of some of my problems? I will Live Upgrade

Okay, I've done a little more reading on ZFS and I see that metadata is already stored redundantly. This means something had to go really wrong for me to lose a bunch of directories, as I did. Okay, that's another piece of information I'm not sure what to make of, but I'll add it to the pile
