Hi Cindy,

No problem at all.. I do appreciate all your help and I know how difficult is 
it through email.

Version:
SunOS solaris 5.11 snv_101b i86pc i386 i86pc 
OpenSolaris 2008.11 with updates

Resilvering seems to be completing (unless it dies at the last second, when 
0h00m left), but if I run zpool status maybe two minutes later, I can see that 
resilvering had restarted (looks like probably immediately and not after 
issuing "zpool status, although I don't have a proof"). 

The bug ID you sent me seems to be different: running zpool status does not 
restart ongoing resilvering from 0%. Resilvering in my case restarts once no 
more time left and the progress is almost at 100% (I actually never seen 100%, 
even though 0h00m was left, it was ninety something percent.) 

I have not noticed any difference among different users, although I have seen 
some postings that repeated resilvering occured if some command was issued by 
root.

Originally I did this:
geo...@solaris:~$ zpool clear distroclips c5d0
cannot clear errors for c5d0: permission denied

Then I switched to su to be able to run zpool clear.

A short while after sending #zpool clear distroclips c5d0, I checked zpool 
status and the array was still degraded and reselvering was in progress again.

What would happen if I manually stopped scrubbing, shut down, disconnect c5d0, 
restart to let zfs complain (and hopefully forget about c5d0s0/o). Then shut 
down, hook up an other drive to replace current c5d0 and do a correct in-place 
replacement: 
# zpool replace distroclips c5d0?

   
Thank you again Cindy.
