[zfs-discuss] What to do about retryable write errors?
I''ve got a newly created zpool where I know (from the previous UFS) that one of the disks has retryable write errors. What should I do about it now? Just leave zfs to deal with it? Repair it? If I should repair, if this procedure ok? zpool offline z2 c5t4d0 format -d c5t4d0 repair ... zpool online z2 c5t4d0 cheers, /Martin This message posted from opensolaris.org

Oh, it should say retryable and normal write errors - I have permanent errors too /Martin On 2 apr 2008, at 00:55, Richard Elling wrote:> Martin Englund wrote: >> I''ve got a newly created zpool where I know (from the previous UFS) >> that one of the disks has retryable write errors. >> >> What should I do about it now?
