Yes, this is a case where the disk has not completely failed. ZFS seems to handle the completely failed disk case properly, and has for a long time. Cutting the power (which you can also do with luxadm) makes the disk appear completely failed. -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
