Re: [zfs-discuss] permanent files error, unable to access pool
Thanks Cindy, In fact, after some research, I ran into the scrub suggestion and it worked perfectly. Now I think that the automated message in http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-8A should mention something about scrub as a worthy attempt. It was related to an external usb disk. I guess I am happy it happened now before I invested in getting a couple of other external disks as mirrors of the existing one. I guess I am better off installing an extra internal disk. is this something common on usb disks? would it get improved in later versions of osol or it is somewhat of an incompatibility/unfriendliness of zfs with external usb disks? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
Re: [zfs-discuss] permanent files error, unable to access pool
to be the best of my recollection, I only needed to run zfs scrub, reboot and the disk became operational again the irony was that the error message was asking me to recover from backup, but the disk involved was my backup of my working pool. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
[zfs-discuss] permanent files error, unable to access pool
I have been using opensolaris for a couple of weeks, today is my first time I reboot the system and I ran into a problem loading my external hd (meant for backup). I was expecting a more descriptive name of the file names, but given that I have no clue which ones are those, can I just tell the OS to delate those or to ignore such files? Any help would be greatly appreciated... jdrod...@_solaris:~# zpool status -v external pool: external state: ONLINE status: One or more devices has experienced an error resulting in data corruption. Applications may be affected. action: Restore the file in question if possible. Otherwise restore the entire pool from backup. see: http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-8A scrub: none requested config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM external ONLINE 0 0 0 c10t0d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 errors: Permanent errors have been detected in the following files: metadata:0x0 metadata:0x14 jdrod...@_solaris:~# -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
