On a RAIDZ, the absence of one drive can be tolerated. But note that you said "part way through the resilver". Drive E is not fully present, AND drive D was removed -- you have 1+ drives missing, in a configuration that can tolerate only 1 drive missing. -- David Dyer-Bennet, d...@dd-b.net; http://dd-b.net/ Snapshots: http://dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/data/ Photos: http://dd-b.net/photography/gallery/ Dragaera: http://dragaera.info _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
