Hello, folks. kind of problem with mirrors and raidz. System & config: — SunOS 5.11, snv_111a — Service system/filesystem/rmvolmgr is disabled.
Hardware: — Asus EeePC Box B202 — Two USB 3.5" inches boxes. If I reboot: mirror or raidz works fine. But if I connect physical USB cables in different USB port, then I get my mirror (or raidz) completely screwed up. If I just shutdown the box, restore physical configuration — everything fubar and no errors reported. I took an output of zdb before and after cable swap, so that diff shows me only different txg on rpool (not related to my own pool of USB drives). Everything else is just identical. When zpool with USB drives are corrupted due to cables swap, "zdb -uuu <pool-name> <ENTER>" won't report anything, yelling that there are no such pool at all (although just "zdb <ENTER>" reports it exists). I understand, that there is a lot of steps, before ZFS see the drives. But... how come that USB cable swapping can affect ZFS corrupted to be like this? It somewhat does not sounds right to me in general: I assume ZFS must find disks by a labels, right? Anyone help me to understand what's going on here, please? If here is any hack/cure/idea/wish or at least necrology, please share as well. :-) Thanks a lot. -- Kind regards, bm _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
