It's highly desirable to have drives with lights on them. So you can manually make the light blink (or stay on) just by reading the drive with dd. Even if you dig down and quantify precisely how the drives are numbered in which order ... You would have to find labels printed on the system board or other sata controllers, and trace the spaghetti of the sata cables, and if you make any mistake along the way, you destroy your pool. (Being dramatic, but not necessarily unrealistic.) Lights. Good. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
