[zfs-discuss] Order of operations w/ checksum errors

zpool status shows a few checksum errors against 1 device in a raidz1 3 disk array and no read or write errors against that device. The pool marked as degraded. Is there a difference if you clear the errors for the pool before you scrub versus scrubing then clearing the errors? I'm not sure if

New, yes. Aware - probably not. Given cheap filesystems, users would create many filesystems was an easy guess, but I somehow don't think anybody envisioned that users would be creating tens of thousands of filesystems. ZFS - too good for it's own good :-p IMO (and given mails/posts
