[OpenIndiana-discuss] ZFS replacement problem

[Bryan N Iotti]

You created the pool using slices and not whole disks (that's why it's cXtXdXsX instead of just cXtXdX).

That's necessary only for the root pool, it's better not to do that for data pools.

If that pool is empty, destroy it and rebuild it using whole disks (just the cXtXdX part, no sX), then your commands will work as expected.

H Folks,

I've got the following...

mich at jaguar:~# cfgadm -al
Ap_Id Type Receptacle Occupant
Condition sata0/0::dsk/c3t0d0 disk connected
configured ok sata0/1 sata-port
empty unconfigured ok sata0/2::dsk/c3t2d0
disk connected configured ok
sata0/3::dsk/c3t3d0 disk connected configured
ok sata0/4::dsk/c3t4d0 disk connected
configured ok sata0/5::dsk/c3t5d0 disk
connected configured ok

mich at jaguar:~# zpool status
pool: rpool1
state: ONLINE
scan: none requested
config:

NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
rpool1 ONLINE 0 0 0
c3t5d0s0 ONLINE 0 0 0

errors: No known data errors

pool: tank
state: ONLINE
scan: resilvered 1.70M in 0h0m with 0 errors on Tue Jun 3 18:19:48
2014 config:

NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
tank ONLINE 0 0 0
raidz1-0 ONLINE 0 0 0
c3t4d0s1 ONLINE 0 0 0
c3t2d0s1 ONLINE 0 0 0
c3t3d0s1 ONLINE 0 0 0

errors: No known data errors


I try ... 

mich at jaguar:~# zpool replace -f tank c3t4d0 c3t0d0
cannot replace c3t4d0 with c3t0d0: no such device in pool

... which is what I am reading in countless articles on-line to do, but
it isn't working. I don't know why I'm getting this error, or which of
the two it is complaining about, because if I try...

mich at jaguar:~# zpool offline tank c3t4d0
cannot offline c3t4d0: no such device in pool

So I can't get the drive replaced.

Any help gratefully appreciated.

Michelle
