I have a raidz1 zpool (Companion) I am unable to import. One of the disks has physically failed and cannot be recognized by any computer, and it is unlikely physical repairs or data recovery is possible. No other disks are reporting errors. One other disk (not the failed one) threw

I'm still struggling with slow resilvering performance. There doesn't seem to be any clear bottleneck at this point.. and it's going glacially slow. scrub: resilver in progress for 11h2m, 27.86% done, 28h35m to go Load averages are like 0.13-0.15 range, CPU usage is 10%, the machine is doing

to go copy off the offending device. Again. I wish I had a better solution, because the zpool functions fine, no data errors, but resilvering loops forever. I love ZFS as an on-disk format. I increasingly hate the implementation of ZFS software. -Galen On Jul 13, 2009, at 5:34 AM, Ross
