Hey Gary,

There appears to be a bug in the RAID-Z code that can generate spurious checksum errors. I'm looking into it now and hope to have it fixed in build 123 or 124. Apologies for the inconvenience.

I have a 5-500GB disk Raid-Z pool that has been producing checksum errors right after upgrading SXCE to build 121. They seem to be randomly occurring on all 5 disks, so it doesn't look like a disk failure situation.

Repeatingly running a scrub on the pools randomly repairs between 20 and a few hundred checksum errors.

Since I hadn't physically touched the machine, it seems a very strong coincidence that it started right after I upgraded to 121.

This machine is a SunFire v20z with a Marvell SATA 8-port controller (the same one as in the original thumper). I've seen this kind of problem way back around build 40-50 ish, but haven't seen it after that until now.

Anyone else experiencing this problem or knows how to isolate the problem definitively?

Thanks,
Gary
