I'm using FreeBSD based FreeNAS 8.0. I first created a 4x2TB ZFS raidz array using the FreeNAS GUI. Everything seemed ok. I then added a 2 port SATA PCI-e card and attached a 2TB disk and a 60GB SSD. I saw no complaints when booting, but the new disks seemed to be detected first, so the disk names changed. And when I started the FreeNAS GUI again, it suggested I had TWO! 2TB disks available for creating new ZFS volumes. :-O
So, my question is: does a ZFS pool survive disks moving around due to changed detection order (using meta-data), or is it necessary to label them or something?
Note: In case this IS handled by ZFS itself, then FreeNAS has a serious bug in its GUI when managing volumes...
