The zpool man page says: The health of the top-level vdev, such as mirror or raidz device, is potentially impacted by the state of its associ- ated vdevs, or component devices. A top-level vdev or com- ponent device is in one of the following states: DEGRADED One or more top-level vdevs is in the degraded state because one or more component devices are offline. Sufficient replicas exist to continue functioning. One or more component devices is in the degraded or faulted state, but sufficient replicas exist to continue functioning. The underlying condi- tions are as follows: o The number of checksum errors exceeds acceptable levels and the device is degraded as an indication that some- thing may be wrong. ZFS continues to use the device as necessary. o The number of I/O errors exceeds acceptable levels. The device could not be marked as faulted because there are insufficient replicas to continue func- tioning. You should take this into consideration as you decide whether to replace disks or not. -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
