Resilvering Error

W

wozzaj

Hi all.

I have an issue where we had a disk die. I pulled the disk and replaced it with another 300Gb disk, setup the raid 0 and booted up.

So far so good. I then did a replace using 'zpool replace z01 9523041407988920466 mfid12' and the resilvering began

After the resilvering had finsihed, it still show the reference to the faulty drive. I rebooted the machine and now shows the following:

Code: 
[root@gins01] ~# zpool status
  pool: z01
 state: DEGRADED
 scrub: none requested

I am now at a loss as to what to do and am not sure if in fact the resilvering was a success or not. I too am also a newbie to this and this environment is totally alien to me as I inherited it and am concerned at losing data so any and all help would be appreciated, and really struggling to get my head around it all!!

Many thanks in advance
Woz.
 
Either:
# zpool offline <poolname> <serial number>
Or:
# zpool remove <poolname> <serial numer>
Or:
# zpool detach <poolname> <serial number>
Where (serial numer) is that kong number in place of the old disk device.
 
I used to have problems on older releases with replaced drives not actually disappearing after a resilver just like this. (Actually I've not had to do a live replace yet but I've done a fair amount of testing)

You may have to force it to remove the old drive. A replace entry is similar to a mirror so you can 'detach' one of the disks from it

Code: 
# zpool detach z01 9523041407988920466
 
Solved (maybe)

Thanks guys.

I decided to bite the bullet and do:
:zpool offilne

followed by

:zpool detach

zpool status then show all ok. Did a scrub to be sure and reported ok. The only other thing that kept bugging me was that the replacement drive was an identical 300Gb SAS drive in a mirrored pair (raid 0) and when the resilvering had completed, it was only showing 85Gb done. Does the resilvered figure only show data copied or could there still be another issue?

Thanks.
Woz.
 
Does you pool happen to be approx {(85/300)*100}% full? (assuming all the vdevs were present from the start so the data is spread evenly)
 
Thanks kpa, that makes me feel better. Do you know if it is a common problem for the replaced disk to remain after the resilvering and change to a fualted state?

usdmatt, not sure how to check that?!?

Thanks guys.
Woz.
 
That shows the total of the pool though. Is there a command to just show the data across the disks of the mirrored pair, particularly that of the resilvered disk as that only showed 85Gb whereas you can see below used is 382Gb?

Click to expand...

Try:
# zpool iostat -v

I think is the closest you´ll get to what you wanted.
