Yes, the FMA agent should do this. Can you run 'fmdump -v' and see if the DE correctly identified the faulted devices? > For instance, the zpool command hanging or the system hanging trying to > reboot normally. If the SCSI commands hang forever, then there is nothing that ZFS can do, as a single write will never return. The more likely case is that the commands are continually timining out with very long response times, and ZFS will continue to talk to them forever. The future FMA integration I mentioned will solve this problem. In the meantime, you should be able to 'zpool offline' the affected devices by hand. There is also associated work going on to better handle asynchrounous reponse times across devices. Currently, a single slow device will slow the entire pool to a crawl. - Eric -- Eric Schrock, Solaris Kernel Development http://blogs.sun.com/eschrock _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
