Is a fairly good writeup on this subject... The short and sweet: One disk in a non-mirrored pool dies and is replaced with a new disk... It looks like zpool scrub is able to recover from an error of this magnitude, but getting it to import in the first place requires a bit of hackery and some saved information... I'm curious if there are future plans to allow forced importing of a damaged set of disks such as this so that they can be scrubbed and recovered. Also if ZFS will allow a forced import *without* a replacement... And will that be part of disk removal per future release (In the FAQ): http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/faq/#deviceremoval Thanks, -Tim _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
