I will ask you the same question as I asked the OP: Has this pool had new vdevs addded to it since the server was installed? What does a "zpool status" look like when the pool is imported? Explanation: Some controllers only make a small fixed number of devices visible to the bios during boot. Imagine a zpool was booted with, say, 4 disks in a pool, and 4 more was added. If the HBA only shows 4 drives to the bios during boot, you see this error. If you think this might be relevant you need to chase down a setting called "maximum int13 devices for this adapter" or something like that. See page 3-4 in this documentation: https://supermicro.com/manuals/other/LSI_HostRAID_2308.pdf The setting has been set to 4 on a bunch of servers I've bought over the last years. Then you install the server with 4 disks, later add new disks, reboot one day and nothing works until you set it high enough that the bootloader can see the whole pool, and you're good again. /Thomas _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
