First, this is under FreeBSD, but it isn't specific to that OS, and it involves 
some technical details beyond normal use, so I'm trying my luck here.

I have a pool (around version 14) with a corrupted log device that's 
irrecoverable.  I found a tool called logfix, but I don't have the GUID of the 
log device stored anywhere, so it won't work.

My idea was to replace it with a dummy log device.  I can easily create a new 
one, and I don't think it's actually tied to the pool.  The way that seems to 
be implemented is vdevs store a checksum for the pool that includes the log 
device's GUID (and possibly other things).

If I make a new log device, would recalculating a pool checksum and replacing 
it on the devices at least get my pool to mount so I can recover the data?
