Yes, but the point is that it's a cheap and easy test, so you might as well do it -- just beware of what it does, and most importantly does not, tell you. It's a valid scenario to test regardless, you want to be sure that you can yank a disk to replace it, without a bus hang or other hotplug problem on your hardware. > > Testing scenarios that involve things like > > disk firmware behaviour in response to > > bad reads is harder - > If you wish to test the failure modes you > are likely to see, then you need a more > sophisticated test rig that will emulate > a device and inject the sorts of faults > you expect. This is one reason I like to keep faulty disks! :) -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
