Huh.  Learn something new everyday.  You just simplified my "pool
health check" script immensely.  Thank you!

pstatus=$( zpool get health storage | grep "health" | awk '{ print $3 }' )
if [ "${pstatus}" != "ONLINE" ]; then

Much simpler than the nested ifs and grep pipelines I was using before.

Not sure why I didn't see "health" in the list of pool properties all
the times I've read the zpool man page.
