Hi ! I played recently with Gigabyte i-RAM card (which is basically an SSD) as a log device for a ZFS pool. However, when I tried to remove it - I need to give the card back - it refused to do so. It looks like I am hitting 6574286 removing a slog doesn''t work [1] Is there any workaround ? I really need to this card removed and I cannot afford losing the data on that pool. Any hints ? [1] http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6574286 -- Regards, Cyril
You could always replace this device by another one of same, or bigger size using zpool replace. -neel Cyril Plisko wrote:> Hi ! > > I played recently with Gigabyte i-RAM card (which is basically an SSD) > as a log device for a ZFS pool.

Provided that I always have an unused device of same or bigger size, which is seldom the case. :(> -neel > > > Cyril Plisko wrote: > > Hi ! > > > > I played recently with Gigabyte i-RAM card (which is basically an SSD) > > as a log device for a ZFS pool.
