Hi Jim,
Thanks for the gdm, I just couldn't work out what the service name was.
I've disabled that.
I did try yanking the drive, with kindness, of course, but still got the
same error message; zfs is obviously smarter than me
At the moment, I'm backing up the drives so I had to revert the set to
the way it was, but one of the original drives reports...
mich@jaguar:~# parted /dev/rdsk/c2t3d0p0 uni s pri
Model: Generic Ide (ide)
Disk /dev/rdsk/c2t3d0p0: 3907029168s
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
1 256s 3907012750s 3907012495s zfs
9 3907012751s 3907029134s 16384s
To test the 3tb drive in a Linux system, before I trusted it to the
server, I did create a partition on it; however my understanding is that
when I give a zfs command at device level ... zpool replace data c2t3d0
c2t5d0 ... it shouldn't matter what partitions are on the device.
...
... and now I appear to have problems. The screen on the server has
gone, "corrupt" (it was blank before, but now it has all sorts of white
noise on the top third) and the backup process has halted.
Any attempt to query the drives, freezes the console session that
requested it.
...and now the system is refusing to start new sessions.
Hmmm....
That was odd.
For the record, I'm now running ...
