similar to: raidz2 array FAULTED with only 1 drive down

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, Arne. I try to build storage server for my home (I have a LOT of media files) with FreeBSD 7, 5xHDD (WD 500Gb) and geom_raid5 ("simple" version from perforce, beacuse http://home.tiscali.de/cmdr_faako/geom_raid5.tbz is not patched for FreeBSD7). Array & FS were created with default arguments: # graid5 label storage ad6 ad8 ad10 ad12 ad14 # newfs -O2 -U /dev/raid5/storage

Hello I have this problem: Yesterday server with FreeBSD 6.0 was self restarted . In messages was this: Mar 8 20:03:11 mail kernel: ar1: WARNING - mirror protection lost.

I've got an Asus P5E3WSPro with 8 SATA ports and 8 disks attached. 6 disks are on one controller (and work perfectly) and 2 are on a second Marvell controller. FreeBSD sees the controller, but not the disks. If I move a working disk to the Marvell controller I can boot off it up to the stage of mounting root where it fails to see the disk. atacontrol shows: ATA channel 2: Master:

I've tested both 6.3 and 7.0-RC2, amd64 architecture, and have found the occurrence of an interrupt storm using an ASUS A8N-SLI Premium (nForce 4) motherboard with an AMD Opteron 175.

Hi, after one month with gmirror and gjournal running on a 7.0-RELEASE #p2 amd64 (built from latest CVS source), the box hung a couple of times when on high disk load. Finally, while building some port it won't boot for no reason obvious to me. This is what I get with kernel.geom.mirror.debug=2: ata2-master: pio=PIO4 wdma=WDMA2 udma=UDMA133 cable=40 wire ad4: 476940MB <SAMSUNG HD501LJ

I have a FreeBSD 6.2-based server running a 1.2TB graid3 volume, which consists of 5x 320gb SATA hard drives. I've been getting errors in /var/log/messages from the graid3 volume, which I suspect means an underlying fault with one of the disks, but is there any way to decipher which one of these drives is throwing errors? I've checked smartctl -a /dev/adXX but nothing shows up there..

Hi I just did a system update and after I've rebooted it doesn't boot up any more. All I'm getting is a blank screen with a curser blinking at the top left corner of the screen. This system was running 7.0-STABLE Any ideas as to how I can get it back up? Regards Reinhold

I have a zpool that consists for a two-drive mirror. The two times I took the zpool offline, I had to resilver one of the drives (the same drive both times) when I imported it back. All drives in the pool show no read, write, or checksum errors and are new, so I'm looking to a software problem before hardware. Both drives are encrypted geli devices. I tried to reproduce the error with 1GB

Say I have a raidz of 3 disks: ad4 ad6 ad8 I want to tell zfs that I am pulling ad4 and replacing it with a new disk on the same controller, but I can''t get it to release its hold on ad4.

Hi all, I have some problems with my gvinum setup after the system panic'ed. Afterwards the system fails finding the plexes to the subdisks (or at least that is what I can understand after having searched the gvinum source code for the error string in the DMESG log..) The machine is an IBM Netfinity 5000 and the internal HW self tests does not find any errors in the hw. Luckily my root is

I am attempting to install 7.1-BETA2 (from CD) onto a PC with a Promise SX4060 RAID controller and two Seagate 120GB ATA disk drives. The boot from CD keeps repeating the following (error) messages: (I'm retyping here) ============================================================================ ================== ad4: WARNING - SETFEATURES SET TRANSFER MODE task queue timeout - completing

Hello, I am actually using ZFS under FreeBSD, but maybe someone over here can help me anyway. I''d like some advice if I still can rely on one of my ZFS pools: [user at host ~]$ sudo zpool clear zpool01 ... [user at host ~]$ sudo zpool scrub zpool01 ... [user at host ~]$ sudo zpool status -v zpool01 pool: zpool01 state: ONLINE status: One or more devices has experienced an

Hello all, I''m building a file server (or just a storage that I intend to access by Workgroup from primarily Windows machines) using zfs raidz2 and openindiana 148. I will be using this to stream blu-ray movies and other media, so I will be happy if I get just 20MB/s reads, which seems like a pretty low standard considering some people are getting 100+. This is my first time with OI, and

Hello, This file server was upgraded from 6.2-RELEASE-p$something to 6.3-RELEASE-p3 (current RELENG_6_3 sources via csup) on August, 11 and rebooted to the new kernel on August, 12. The school is closed due to holidays. The only load is mail delivery to Maildirs via NFS from another server (just 50 mailboxes or so, none of them very busy) and nightly backups. I went there on August, 13 to perform

Already making use of it, thank you! http://www.justinconover.com/blog/?p=17 I took 6x250gb disk and tried raidz2/raidz/none # zpool create zfs raidz2 c0d0 c1d0 c2d0 c3d0 c7d0 c8d0 df -h zfs Filesystem size used avail capacity Mounted on zfs 915G 49K 915G 1% /zfs # zpool destroy -f zfs Plain old raidz (raid-5ish) # zpool create zfs raidz c0d0

I''d like to replace/upgrade two 500GB disks in RaidZ2 vdev with 1TB disks, but I have some preliminary questions/concerns before trying ''zfs replace dpool ?'' Will ZFS permit this replacement? Will ZFS use the extra space in a heterogeneous RaidZ2 vdev, or is the size limited by the smallest disk in the vdev? Thanks in advance, Vizzini The system is currently running

I have an X4500 thumper box with 48x 500gb drives setup in a a pool and split into raidz2 sets of 8 - 10 drives within the single pool. I had a failed disk with i cfgadm unconfigured and replaced no problem, but it wasn''t recognised as a Sun drive in Format and unbeknown to me someone else logged in remotely at the time and issued a zpool replace.... I corrected the system/drive

Hello, 1) If i create a raidz2 pool on some disks, start to use it, then the disks'' controllers change. What will happen to my zpool? Will it be lost or is there some disk tagging which allows zfs to recognise the disks? 2) if i create a raidz2 on 3 HDs, do i have any resilience? If any one of those drives fails, do i loose everything? I''ve got one such pool and
