So current sequence of events: The scrub from this morning completed, and it now is calling out a specific file with problems. Based on the "bad_label" messages above, I went to my USB devices to double check their labels; format shows them without problems. So does fdisk. Just to be sure, I went to the format partition menu and re-ran label without changing anything. I then ran a zpool clear, and now it looks like everything is online except that one file: -bash-3.2# zpool status -v pool: local 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: scrub completed after 4h22m with 1 errors on Mon Jul 7 13:44:31 2008 config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM local ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror ONLINE 0 0 0 c6d1p0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c0t0d0s3 ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror ONLINE 0 0 0 c6d0p0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c0t0d0s4 ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror ONLINE 0 0 0 c8t0d0p0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c0t0d0s5 ONLINE 0 0 0 errors: Permanent errors have been detected in the following files: /local/share/music/Petes-itunes/Scientist/Scientific Dub/Satta Dread Dub.mp3 HOWEVER, it does not appear that things are good: -bash-3.2# zpool list NAME SIZE USED AVAIL CAP HEALTH ALTROOT local 630G 228G 403G 36% ONLINE - rpool 55G 2.63G 52.4G 4% ONLINE - -bash-3.2# df -k /local Filesystem kbytes used avail capacity Mounted on local/main 238581865 238567908 0 100% /local -bash-3.2# cd '/local/share/music/Petes-itunes/Scientist/Scientific Dub/' -bash-3.2# ls -l total 131460 -rwxr--r-- 1 elmegil other 8374348 Jun 10 18:51 Bad Days Dub.mp3 -rwxr--r-- 1 elmegil other 5355853 Jun 10 18:51 Blacka Shade of Dub.mp3 -rwxr--r-- 1 elmegil other 7260905 Jun 10 18:50 Drum Song Dub.mp3 -rwxr--r-- 1 elmegil other 6058878 Jun 10 18:51 East of Scientist Corner (II Pieces).mp3 -rwxr--r-- 1 elmegil other 7244195 Jun 10 18:51 Every Dub Shall Scrub.mp3 -rwxr--r-- 1 elmegil other 6878897 Jun 10 18:52 Just say Dub...

This is strange to me because previously the other files that were corrupted didn't object to being removed. Someone else wrote me directly and suggested this could be the fault of the new hardware...but the old hardware was panicking in ZFS so it wasn't any more reliable (read: not any help to recover my data), and I half expect that the panics could be related to some of this problem too. I definitely am not seeing any other symptoms of bad hardware, no transport or other disk errors aside from the ZFS complaints (i.e. none of the usb or disk drivers are having any reported issues afaics), I'm not seeing ECC or other memory issues, no panicing from bit flips...which doesn't rule out bad hardware of course, but I think I'd expect to see more than just the ZFS problems.... Just as a point of information, the motherboard is an ASUS M2A-VM and I've updated to the latest available BIOS (1705 I believe it was, from March this year). I did that before the first import of the local pool on the new HW in fact. Part of me is thinking what I ought to do is lop off the 750G drive, make it its own pool, physically copy as much of the data as I can save into that pool, scrub it to be sure it's ok beyond that, and then re-create the original pool from scratch and copy the data back before mirroring again to the 750. Very drastic, seems risky. If there is anything more intelligible than I can discern from the fmdump above (fmdump -eV gives even more cryptic hex strings :) ) that could save this radical approach, any advice is appreciated. Unfortunately there aren't any other available media big enough to store 230G in a reasonable amount of time/individual media count (60 DVDs! 8G DVDs would be half that, but I have yet to find a DL drive that works reliably for me....). Thanks Jeff. I hope my frustration in all this doesn't sound directed at anyone in particular and definitely not you. I appreciate your time looking and giving advice.
