Huh? I was under the impression that this was for catastrophic write issues (no paths to storage at all) not just one side of a mirror being down? I run mostly zraid2 and have not tested mirror breakage but am I wrong in assuming that like any other mirroring system (hw or software) when you lose one side of a mirror for writes that the expected result is the filesystem stays online and error free while the disk(s) in question are marked as down/failed/offline? -Wade _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
