[OpenIndiana-discuss] Re : sata hot plug problem (ahci?) + openindiana crash

[Alex Lam S.L.]

Hi there,

I have a server with a 3-way mirror pool which I can hot-swap the 3rd
HDD as an off-site backup.

I have to issue additional commands before and after physically
swapping the HDDs, which I can't recall exactly right now but Google
points to the following:

HTH,
Alex.
