I made a bad judgment and now my raidz pool is corrupted. I have a raidz pool running on Opensolaris b85. I wanted to try out freenas 0.7 and tried to add my pool to freenas. After adding the zfs disk, vdev and pool. I decided to back out and went back to opensolaris. Now my raidz pool will not mount and got the following errors. Hope someone expert can help me recover from this error.

Hello, I have been asked to take a look at at poll on a old OSOL 2009.06 host. It have been left unattended for a long time and it was found in a FAULTED state. Two of the disks in the raildz2 pool seems to have failed, one have been replaced by a spare, the other one is UNAVAIL. The machine was restarted and the damaged disks was removed to make it possible to access the pool without it hanging

We are currently experiencing a very huge perfomance drop on our zfs storage server. We have 2 pools, pool 1 stor is a raidz out of 7 iscsi nodes, home is a local mirror pool. Recently we had some issues with one of the storagenodes, because of that the pool was degraded. Since we did not succeed in bringing this storagenode back online (on zfs level) we upgraded our nashead from opensolaris b57

Hi, all, I think I''m missing a concept with import and export. I''m working on installing a Nexenta b134 system under Xen, and I have to run the installer under hvm mode, then I''m trying to get it back up under pv mode. In that process the controller names change, and that''s where I''m getting tripped up. I do a successful install, then I boot OK,

Hello, I''ve been using Nexentastore Community Edition with no issues now for a while now, however last week I was going to rebuild a different system so I started to copy all the data off that to my to a raidz2 volume on me CE system. This was going fine until I noticed that they copy was stalled, as well as the entire system was non-responsive. I let it sit for several hours with no

After multiple power outages caused by storms coming through, I can no longer access /dev/zvol/dsk/poolname, which are hold l2arc and slog devices in another pool I don''t think this is related, since I the pools are ofline pending access to the volumes. I tried running find /dev/zvol/dsk/poolname -type f and here is the stack, hopefully this someone a hint at what the issue is, I have

I would like to pick the brains of the ZFS experts on this list: What would you do next to try and recover this zfs pool? I have a ZFS RAIDZ1 pool named bank0 that I cannot import. It was composed of 4 1.5 TiB disks. One disk is totally dead. Another had SMART errors, but using GNU ddrescue I was able to copy all the data off successfully. I have copied all 3 remaining disks as images using

i''ve got a little zpool with a naughty raidz vdev that won''t take a replacement that as far as i can tell should be adequate. a history: this could well be some bizarro edge case, as the pool doesn''t have the cleanest lineage. initial creation happened on NexentaCP inside vmware in linux. i had given the virtual machine raw device access to 4 500gb drives and 1 ~200gb

Hi, I have lost a ZFS volume and I am hoping to get some help to recover the information ( a couple of months worth of work :( ). I have been using ZFS for more than 6 months on this project. Yesterday I ran a "zvol status" command, the system froze and rebooted. When it came back the discs where not available. See bellow the output of " zpool status", "format"

I''m not sure exactly what happened with my box here, but something caused a hiccup on multiple sata disks... May 9 16:40:33 sol scsi: [ID 107833 kern.warning] WARNING: /pci at 0,0/pci10de,5c at 9/pci-ide at a/ide at 0 (ata6): May 9 16:47:43 sol scsi: [ID 107833 kern.warning] WARNING: /pci at 0,0/pci-ide at 7/ide at 1 (ata3): May 9 16:47:43 sol timeout: abort request, target=0

I had the rpool with two sata disks in the miror. Solaris 10 5.10 Generic_141415-08 i86pc i386 i86pc Unfortunately the first disk with grub loader has failed with unrecoverable block write/read errors. Now I have the problem to import rpool after the first disk has failed. So I decided to do: "zpool import -f rpool" only with second disk, but it''s hangs and the system is

Hi, more than a year ago I created a mirrored ZFS-Pool consiting of 2x1TB HDDs using the OSX 10.5 ZFS Kernel Extension (Zpool Version 8, ZFS Version 2). Everything went fine and I used the pool to store personal stuff on it, like lots of photos and music. (So getting the data back is not time critical, but still important to me.) Later, since the development of the ZFS extension was

(From the README) # Jeb Campbell <jebc at c4solutions.net> NOTE: This is last resort if you need your data now. This worked for me, and I hope it works for you. If you have any reservations, please wait for Sun to release something official, and don''t blame me if your data is gone. PS -- This worked for me b/c I didn''t try and replace the log on a running system. My

I was messing around with a ramdisk on a pool and I forgot to remove it before I shut down the server. Now I am not able to mount the pool. I am not concerned with the data in this pool, but I would like to try to figure out how to recover it. I am running Nexenta 3.0 NCP (b134+). I have tried a couple of the commands (zpool import -f and zpool import -FX llift) root at

Hi all, we have just bought a sun X2200M2 (4GB / 2 opteron 2214 / 2 disks 250GB SATA2, solaris 10 update 4) and a sun STK 2540 FC array (8 disks SAS 146 GB, 1 raid controller). The server is attached to the array with a single 4 Gb Fibre Channel link. I want to make a mirror using ZFS with this array. I have created 2 volumes on the array in RAID0 (stripe of 128 KB) presented to the host

Not sure what the best list to send this to is right now, so I have selected a few, apologies in advance. A couple questions. First I have a physical host (call him bob) that was just installed with b134 a few days ago. I upgraded to b145 using the instructions on the Illumos wiki yesterday. The pool has been upgraded (27) and the zfs file systems have been upgraded (5). chris at bob:~# zpool

I had a single spare 500GB HDD and I decided to install a FreeBSD file server in it for learning purposes, and I moved almost all of my data to it. Yesterday, and naturally after no longer having backups of the data in the server, I had a controller failure (SiS 180 (oh, the quality)) and the HDD was considered unplugged. When I noticed a few checksum failures on `zfs status` (including two on

Hi, I am using FreeBSD 8.2 and went to add 4 new disks today to expand my offsite storage. All was working fine for about 20min and then the new drive cage started to fail. Silly me for assuming new hardware would be fine :( The new drive cage started to fail, it hung the server and the box rebooted. After it rebooted, the entire pool is gone and in the state below. I had only written a few
