Hi Today I attached two disks to my two disk zfs stripe. The resilvering started immediately and everything worked fine. But while it was running I had to reboot and thought that the resilvering would continue where it was because it works Top-down like Bonwick said in his blog. But after the reboot, where the resilvering restarted by itself without a problem I noticed that it started from the beginning!? Why is that the case when it works Top-down? Denis PS: I am running the latest FreeBSD, but I think that doesn''t matters. This message posted from opensolaris.org
