Theory: Suppose da3 and da6 are either bad drives, have cabling issues, or are on a controller suffering corruption (different from the other drives). If you now were to replace da9 by da11, the resilver operation would be reading from these drives, thus triggering checksum issues. Once you bring da9 back in, it is either entirely up to date or very close to up to date, so the amount of I/O required to resilver it is very small and may not trigger problems. If this theory is correct, a scrub (zpool scrub fatty) should encounter checksum errors on da3 and da6. -- / Peter Schuller PGP userID: 0xE9758B7D or 'Peter Schuller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>' Key retrieval: Send an E-Mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.scode.org
