What does it mean if I have three drives we resilvering every time I run zpool clear status?

I clicked on "clear errors" from the pools menu and that triggered the three drives to resilver again. pool: storage state: DEGRADED status: One or more devices is currently being resilvered. The pool will continue to function, possibly in a degraded state. action: Wait for the...

So the pool seems okay for now, though degraded. How do I get rid of the UNAVAIL disk entry? PS The 1 data error is from the iscsi file I have, which I can't easily replace and the OS I have running with it seems to be functional for the most part. pool: storage state: DEGRADED...

Below is my current status so there is another disk that is exhibiting issues. So I am a bit stressed due to 3 disks exhibiting issues when the tolerance is for 2 disks. With a third disk exhibiting issues, resilvering will complete, with the third disk having status degraded. How should I...

After the resilvering was complete, I did the export/import. It still lists the missing disks as unavail and the replacing is still in progress. how do i just complete the replace and remove the unavail disk entries?

I tried replacing a disk, and after resilvering, the faulted/replaced disk is still showing. After the resilver, the replaced disk was still present. I powered off and removed the replaced disk. When started again, it showed the new disk resilvering again, but the replaced disk is still showing...

I had a zpool with 3TB Hitachi drives, using shift 9. Two of the drives are showing issues and I would like to replace it with 4TB Hitach drives. When I try to do so, it says "devices have different sector alignment". Can I still replace the old 3TB drives with the new 4TB drives, or am I out...

I'm trying to migrate from OpenIndiana to OmniOS and I'm stuck on figuring out how to migrate an iscsi instance. I know I can backup the config with the comstar backup option, but I can't seem to find that file on the machine so I can restore it on the new install. Any advice on how to do...

Thanks for the advice. For iscsi conf, do I simply save the comstar conf and then restore it back when i have OmniOS w/ nappit configured?

can i export a pool from OpenIndiana w/ nappit, install OmniOS w/ nappit and import the pool back, keeping all the acl/shares the same? thanks and just curious if people here prefer OpenIndiana or OmniOS in general.

Thanks for the help Gea. As it turns out during the resilvering process, it found more issues. And when it tries to recover, my openindiana/nappit on esxi crashes. What would you recommend be my course of action. The setup is a 8+2 raidz2 setup. It seems like there are 2+ bad disks...

I found a degraded disk, and I then added spare and chose to replace the degraded drive with the spare. Is this what I was suppose to do or did I screw that up as I don't see a way to remove the degraded disk. Remove option only shows the spares. Please advise, I getting stressed out about...

I'm trying to replace degraded drives for the first time. I added a spare to the pool and chose to replace the degraded disk with the spare which kicked off the resilvering. During the resilvering, it found another degraded disk which I repeated the spare/replace process. I checked under...

that did the trick thanks fyi, spotted a typo when creating a target "Succeffully create target with alias name : 09.26.2012"

I exported a zpool which had an iscsi, and now that i imported it back in, how do i re-enable the iscsi from it again? thanks i tried running the following to recreate the lu with the same guid, but it complains about the guid length, even though im sure it is right, 32 hex characters...

im running a X9SCM-IIF with 3x m1015 with an e3-1230v2 and i have read that other people have gotten it to work with the latest bios. have it running on vmware vsphere with passthrough mode with openindiana + nappit

newbie question regarding zfs, if i export my zpool, reinstall openindiana, and then import my zpool again, will my shares be intact? thanks

i tried turning off what i can, but other than the serial ports, the bios doesnt seem to have the option to turn off much else. i do use ipmi, as i dont have a graphics card installed or onboard video on the cpu. there are two onboard nics, but i there doesnt seem to be a way to disable them...

I was wondering if someone can educate me on how to get around the following error MPT BIOS Fault 01h encountered at adapter PCI(03h,00h,00h) From searching online, Fault 01h means "Fault 01: No I/O port assigned to the adapter.", and since my network card isn't picking up an IP address...

im a little confused then. i can see how the first number, under alloc, is considered the size of the device. but why is the second number, under free, described as the amount of space allocated? and I take it you meant to say 8M not 8G?

how should i interpret this output? admin@openindiana:~$ zpool iostat -v 'storage' capacity operations bandwidth pool alloc free read write read write ------------------------- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- -----...

im currently setting up a computer for my parents to watch movies and tv shows on the television it is an old television so no hdtv it will be using p3 1.0ghz cpu with 768mb sdram running on winxp with a ati 9600 pro video card is this system sufficient?

getting one 20" mainly for television almost seems like a waste and it doesn't seem like the 20" is that much bigger than a 19" getting dual 20" would be great except for the price now what would I do with my existing dual 15" four monitors seems over kill, especially when used at home

Just wanting some comments on what is better currently I can get two 19" lcds for $560 or one 20" for $500 what should I get I currently have two 15" lcds and I usually use one for watching tv and the other for surfing the net with the 20" I do get a higher resolution but I don't think...

The controller card is some no-brand card. It was made in China. THe card did come with a CD that had drivers, but like I said, when WinXP prompts me for the drivers, and I point it to the drivers on the CD, it doesn't recognize it as valid drivers. The only instruction that came with it...
