Have a failed drive on a ZFS pool (three RAIDZ2 vdevs, one hot spare).
The hot spare kicked in and all is well.
Is it possible to just make that hot spare disk -- already silvered
into the pool -- as a permanent part of the pool? We could then throw
in a new disk and mark it as a spare and avoid what would seem to be an
unnecessary resilver (twice, once when the spare is brought in and
again when we replace the failed disk).
Yes, as Tianhong just posted, just detach the faulted device.
What you describe is what I normally do, add the original drive back as
a spare when it is replaced.
