What happened: 1. Base system running on gmirror volume consisting of 4 mirrors booted up normally in degraded mode with 3 of 4 drives online. 2. /data powered by raidz1 zfs was showing 3 drives, 2 online and 1 faulted. zfs list was showing that volume is unavailable due lack of spares.
you told about having raidz over 4 drives. so while it reports 2 online and 1 faulted, not 3 online and 1 faulted?
What was wrong when 3 drives were connected? Wasnt supposed to raidz1 survive lack of 1 drive? Or I did something wrong there?
yes it should work normally. in case of raid-z - with just a bit slower speed according to ZFS theory.
