Hi,
this is true, but it might still be possible to use zfs in a
distributed setup, as you can build pools from plain files that may be
located anywhere on a network.
Automatic status notification would require some custom scripting and
it is obviously not recommended by sun ;-)
The other dra
Hi Matt,
you can use
zpool replace pond ad4
after removing your old disk.
The problem is, if something goes wrong during the replace, you might
lose data, because you have to remove the redundant disk first.
Hope this helps,

Hi Matt,
if you can remember the status information and are the only
administrator, you can just doa zpool clear and re-scrub your pool
regularly.
zpool clear does no more or less than resetting the status and the
counters.
(A reboot or export does the same thing, at least no Mac OS X.)

I've just tried to bfu my system from b87 (which was in turn bfu'ed from OS DP
2, so has a ZFS root as installed by DP 2), and b88 is unbootable. I retrieved
the non-debug b88 bfu archives from the ON download page, so am not using a
local build.
I'm relatively new to debugging boot problems o
No :-)
The slightly more longer answer is that I don't think ZFS is what you're
looking for, I believe there are other projects better suited (although I don't
recall the names off the top of my head).
For starters, ZFS only offers at best dual parity raid, so if more than two
computers went o

While the results might not be pretty, if each PC exports a drive via
iSCSI and mirroring is used with plenty of PCs in each mirror, it
seems like it would "work" but with likely dismal performance if a PC

The reason is that EFI labels are not supported for booting.

Say I have a raidz of 3 disks: ad4 ad6 ad8
I want to tell zfs that I am pulling ad4 and replacing it with a new disk on
the same controller, but I can't get it to release its hold on ad4.

This is probably a FAQ but I have been unable to turn up the answer in
searches, thanks for your patience.
I have a zfs testbed set up with 3x 200 GB SATA drives in raidz. I pulled a
drive (ad4) and replaced it to experience the rebuild procedure. After
scrubbing/resilvering, I get the status
