I learned to use the zpool command from a command line and did a 15 minute reversal of the transactions.
How much damage if any has been done though to my data? Most of it I can replace most likely, but some of it which is 635 gigs or so of tarballs is potentially important. I stored sha512 sums and md5 sums of the tarballs along with them... these backups haven't been evaluated for what is important and what isn't. I can probably trim that 635 gigs down to something more reasonable. I backed up an old Linux system for my brother and while he has a copy on 2 synology nas, my copy is still important. I have three 4 tb drives in the FreeNAS Mini, is this enough for redundancy? Should I get an 8 TB drive in an external enclosure and hook it via USB3? I'm wondering what kind of raid is going on, I only know that the drives use the ZFS file system. I learned about smartctl as well, but I don't know how to get and interpret the results of a long test. I want to know how the drives are doing. I'm updated to FreeNAS 11.2 U6. BTW: I appreciate the offer of help offline if I call a phone number, but with the Sara spam on the plug list I couldn't trust the phone number. -- Michael C.
