[OpenIndiana-discuss] zpool completes resilver with no errors and then starts resilvering again - resolved

[russell]

Hi

After over a  week of continous resilvering without any errors being 
reported it has finally stopped.
Unfortunately I am not sure precisely why it has stopped, it could be 
down to one of two actions.
In order to increase the rate at which resilvering took place so that 
unnecessary processes were not run, I had my desktop running at 
run-level 2 as this reduced the resilver time by around 5 hours but 
after completing it immediately started again.

So yesterday I allowed the resilver to take place while the desktop was 
active (run-level 3) and the resilver time completed in 15 hours and did 
not start to resilver again this time. There is no requirement to 
complete the resilver in run-level 3?

Unfortunately I also completed a pkg update to a new BE so I am not sure 
which or if both actions resolved this resilver issue.

Regards

Russell
