Hello list,

someone (actually neil perrin (CC)) mentioned in this thread:

http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/zfs-discuss/2009-December/034340.html

that is should be possible to import a pool with failed log devices (with or without data loss ?).

Er that bug should probably be closed as a duplicate.
We now have this functionality.

Can someone clarify in which release this is fixed and which bug addresses this ?

Are the situations then handled like this:

1) Machine + ZIL Failes (e.g. ZIL Device damaged during system crash)
In this case max 5seconds data loss, but pool is still correct.

2) Machine reboot / shutdown (e.g ZIL Device failure during machine transport of a machine)
In this case no data loss.

3) Removal of a ZIL device of a pool ?
Is this possible ?

Regards,
Robert
