[zfs-discuss] Disk failed, System not booting
hi there, i got freenas installed with a raidz1 pool of 3 disks. one of them now failed and it gives me errors like Unrecovered red errors: autorreallocatefailed or MEDIUM ERROR asc:11,4 and the system won't even boot up. so i bought a replacement drive, but i am a bit concerned since normaly you should detach the drive via terminal. i can't do it, since it won't boot up. so am i safe, if i just shut down the machine and replace the drive with the new one and resilver? thanks in advance adrian -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
Re: [zfs-discuss] upgrade zfs stripe
ok thanks for the fast info. that sounds really awesome. i am glad i tried out zfs, so i no longer have to worry about this issues and the fact that i can upgrad forth and back between stripe and mirror is amazing. money was short, so only 2 disks had been put in and since the data is not that worthy i was aware of non-redundancy. though after knowing that feature i will surely add a disk for that in the next time. thanks again. adrian -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
[zfs-discuss] upgrade zfs stripe
hi there, since i am really new to zfs, i got 2 important questions for starting. i got a nas up and running zfs in stripe mode with 2x 1,5tb hdd. my question for future proof would be, if i could add just another drive to the pool and zfs can integrate it flawlessly? and second if this hdd could also be another size than 1,5tb? so could i put in 2tb also and integrate it? thanks in advance adrian -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
[zfs-discuss] raidz using partitions
hi there, maybe this is a stupid question, yet i haven't found an answer anywhere ;) let say i got 3x 1,5tb hdds, can i create equal partitions out of each and make a raid5 out of it? sure the safety would drop, but that is not that important to me. with roughly 500gb partitions and the raid5 forumla of n-1*smallest drive i should be able to get 4tb storage instead of 3tb when using 3x 1,5tb in a normal raid5. thanks for you answers greetings -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
