Hi-- I'm not quite sure about the exact sequence of events here, but it sounds like you had two spares and replaced the failed disk with one of the spares, which you can do manually with the zpool replace command.
The remaining spare should drop back into the spare pool if you detached it. Check your zpool status output to confirm the spare status. If you need to add it back to the pool, then you can use zpool add. You can review more about managing spares, here: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-2271/gcvcw?a=view Your questions have reminded me that we need a better example of the failed disk--spare replacement scenario in this guide so I will add one.
