Given your description of the physical installation, I'd initially suspect that you have a poorly SCSI bus before proceeding. What is the bus type and what length are the cables?

If you've got 7 devices and hence 7 individual enclosures, with associated wiring between them, you may have exceeded the working length of the scsi bus, or have an issue with one of the later devices due to sync.

Have you tried the same drive moved in the chain (as ZFS will id the disk irrespective of its solaris path)?

What card (or onboard) and platform are you running ...

ok, two weeks ago I did notice one of my disk in zpool got problems.
I was getting "Corrupt label; wrong magic number" messages, then when I looked in format it did not see that disk... (last disk) I had that setup running for few months now and all of the sudden last disk failed. So I ordered another disk, had it replaced like a week ago, I did issue replace command after disk replacement, it was resilvering disks since forever, then I got hints from this group that snaps could be causing it so yesterday I did disable snaps and this morning I di dnotice the same disk that I replaced is gone... Does it seem weird that this disk would fail? Its new disk... I have Solaris 10 U2, 4 internal drives and then 7 external drives which are in single enclousures connected via scsi chain to each other... So it seems like last disk is failing. Those nipacks from sun have self termination so there is no terminator at the end... Any ideas what should I do? Do I need to order another drive and replace that one too? Or will it happen again? What do you think could be the problem? Ah, when I look at that enclosure I do see green light on it so it seems like it did not fail...
