Measure the I/O performance with iostat. You should see something that looks sorta like (iostat -zxCn 10): extended device statistics r/s w/s kr/s kw/s wait actv wsvc_t asvc_t %w %b device 5948.9 349.3 40322.3 5238.1 0.1 16.7 0.0 2.7 0 330 c9 3.7 0.0 230.7 0.0 0.0 0.1 0.0 13.5 0 2 c9t1d0 845.0 0.0 5497.4 0.0 0.0 0.9 0.0 1.1 1 32 c9t2d0 3.8 0.0 230.7 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 10.6 0 1 c9t3d0 845.2 0.0 5495.4 0.0 0.0 0.9 0.0 1.1 1 32 c9t4d0 3.8 0.0 237.1 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 10.4 0 1 c9t5d0 841.4 0.0 5519.7 0.0 0.0 0.9 0.0 1.1 1 32 c9t6d0 3.8 0.0 237.3 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 9.2 0 1 c9t7d0 843.5 0.0 5485.2 0.0 0.0 0.9 0.0 1.1 1 31 c9t8d0 3.7 0.0 230.8 0.0 0.0 0.1 0.0 15.2 0 2 c9t9d0 850.2 0.0 5488.6 0.0 0.0 0.9 0.0 1.1 1 31 c9t10d0 3.1 0.0 211.2 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 13.2 0 1 c9t11d0 847.9 0.0 5523.4 0.0 0.0 0.9 0.0 1.1 1 31 c9t12d0 3.1 0.0 204.9 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 9.6 0 1 c9t13d0 847.2 0.0 5506.0 0.0 0.0 0.9 0.0 1.1 1 31 c9t14d0 3.4 0.0 224.1 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 12.3 0 1 c9t15d0 0.0 349.3 0.0 5238.1 0.0 9.9 0.0 28.4 1 100 c9t16d0
Here you can clearly see a raidz2 resilver in progress. c9t16d0 is the disk being resilvered (write workload) and half of the others are being read to generate the resilvering data. Note the relative performance and the ~30% busy for the surviving disks. If you see iostat output that looks significantly different than this, then you might be seeing one of two common causes: 1. Your version of ZFS has the new resilver throttle *and* the pool is otherwise servicing I/O. 2. Disks are throwing errors or responding very slowly. Use fmdump -eV to observe error reports. -- richard On Nov 1, 2010, at 12:33 PM, Mark Sandrock wrote: > Hello, > > I'm working with someone who replaced a failed 1TB drive (50% utilized), > on an X4540 running OS build 134, and I think something must be wrong. > > Last Tuesday afternoon, zpool status reported: > > scrub: resilver in progress for 306h0m, 63.87% done, 173h7m to go > > and a week being 168 hours, that put completion at sometime tomorrow night. > > However, he just reported zpool status shows: > > scrub: resilver in progress for 447h26m, 65.07% done, 240h10m to go > > so it's looking more like 2011 now.
