Rather bizarrely, after that second failure I pulled the disk, cleared the pool, re-inserted it and forced it online. This time, ZFS resilvered fine with zero errors:

On both of them, I've replaced a disk with a brand new one and had it complain of errors with the replacement. And again, on both machines after clearing the errors and starting the rebuild again it completed fine. I'm going to test both of these disks carefully, I find it very odd for ZFS to complain of errors when replacing disks on two separate machines. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
