Dear Matthew,
Some methods were not mentioned that have been discussed on zfs-discuss@
in the past several times. Useful for list archives at least:
. One easy way to detect disk locations is to make the lights blink if you
have lights per drive in your chassis. But it does not scale. For example
Hi guys, after a scrub my raidz array status showed:
# zpool status
pool: pool
state: ONLINE
status: One or more devices has experienced an unrecoverable error. An
attempt was made to correct the error. Applications are unaffected.
action: Determine if the device needs to be replaced,
Thank you for all of the good pointers, everyone. croinfo and diskinfo
don't give me any output, but that's not surprising since this is a
home-built system. But it's good to know those utilities exist for
production hardware.

Have a look at the file /etc/path_to_inst. There you will find all
device instances managed by a particular driver. The first entry of

You have gotten some good responses that should help you out.
However, you shouldn

Have a look at the file /etc/path_to_inst. There you will find all
device instances managed by a particular driver. The first entry of
each line is the physical device.
If you then look in /dev/rdsk
