zfs discuss - Dec 2010 - Disk failed, System not booting

hi there,

i got freenas installed with a raidz1 pool of 3 disks. one of them now failed
and it gives me errors like "Unrecovered red errors:
autorreallocatefailed" or "MEDIUM ERROR asc:11,4" and the system
won''t even boot up. so i bought a replacement drive, but i am a bit
concerned since normaly you should detach the drive via terminal. i
can''t do it, since it won''t boot up. so am i safe, if i just
shut down the machine and replace the drive with the new one and resilver?

thanks in advance
adrian

Just boot off a live cd, import the pool, and swap it that way.

I''m guessing you havent changed your failmode to continue?
