Hi,

just found on a X4500 with S10u6:

fmd: [ID 441519 daemon.error] SUNW-MSG-ID: ZFS-8000-GH, TYPE: Fault, VER: 1, 
SEVERITY: Major
EVENT-TIME: Wed Feb 11 16:03:26 CET 2009
PLATFORM: Sun Fire X4500, CSN: 00:14:4F:20:E0:2C , HOSTNAME: peng
SOURCE: zfs-diagnosis, REV: 1.0
EVENT-ID: 74e6f0ec-b1e7-e49b-8d71-dc1c9b68ad2b
DESC: The number of checksum errors associated with a ZFS device exceeded 
acceptable levels.  Refer to http://sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-GH for more 
information.
AUTO-RESPONSE: The device has been marked as degraded.  An attempt will be made 
to activate a hot spare if available.
IMPACT: Fault tolerance of the pool may be compromised.
REC-ACTION: Run 'zpool status -x' and replace the bad device.

zpool status -x 
...
          mirror      DEGRADED     0     0     0
            spare     DEGRADED     0     0     0
              c6t6d0  DEGRADED     0     0     0  too many errors
              c4t0d0  ONLINE       0     0     0
            c7t6d0    ONLINE       0     0     0
...
        spares
          c4t0d0      INUSE     currently in use
          c4t4d0      AVAIL

Strange thing is, that for more than 3 month there was no single error
logged with any drive. IIRC, before u4 I've seen occasionaly a bad
checksum error message, but this was obviously the result from the
wellknown race condition of the marvell driver when havy writes took place.

So I tend to interprete it as an false alarm and think about
'zpool ... clear c6t6d0'.

What do you think. Is this a good idea?

Regards,
jel. 

BTW: zpool status -x  msg refers to http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-9P,
     the event to http://sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-GH - little bit
     inconsistent I think.
