My current understanding is that RAIDZ and RAIDZ2 setups CANNOT be
expanded, nor can they converted between. There has been considerable
discussion on this point, and I think the consensus is that expansion is
a highly desirable feature, but the exact timetable for adding expansion
capability
You cannot add 1 drive at a time to a raid-z or raid-2z. You need to add the
same number of disks that were used per stripe.. So, if you start with 5 disks,
you would have to add 5 more in the future to add disk space. There is also a
method of swapping each disk one at a time with a larger disk
In a recent message, I detailed the excessive checksum errors that
occurred after replacing a disk. It seems that after a resilver
completes, it leaves a large number of blocks in the pool which fail
to checksum properly. Afterward, it is necessary to scrub the pool in
order to correct these err
Hi All,
here is an other kind of kernel panic caused by ZFS that we found.
I have dumps if needed.
#zpool import
pool: zpool8
id: 7382567111495567914
state: ONLINE
status: The pool is formatted using an older on-disk version.
action: The pool can be imported using its name or numeric identi
I'm running Nevada build 60 inside VMWare, it is a test rig with no data of
value.

I wanted to check out the FMA handling of a serious zpool error, so I did the
following:
2007-04-07.08:46:31 zpool create tank mirror c0d1 c1d1
2007-04-07.15:21:37 zpool scr
I was considering the same thing (but with 250GB drives)
and instead decided to start with 5*250GB
so that I could do raid-z2 instead
thinking that once you add one more drive
you'd rather have raidz2 than raidz

Today we lost an other zpool!
Fortunately it was only a backup repository.
SERVER144@/# zpool import zpool3
internal error: unexpected error 5 at line 773 of ../common/libzfs_pool.c
this zpool was a RAID10 from 4 HDS LUN.
trying to import it into snv_60 (recovery mode) doesn't work.

Hi List,
A few days we exported a zpool which caused our system to panic. Ever since we
are able to reimport the pool. We are quite sure all data is intact sinse the
pool is located on raid 10 and the other pools still work. We copied the entire
disk (iscsi) to a file and placed it back on a id
