I recently upgraded the system this array runs on. I replaced the motherboard, cpu, memory, etc and installed FreeBSD 10 due to compatibility issues with the NIC. It had previously been on FreeBSD 9.2. I did the requisite zpool export and zpool import and now 2 of the devices have the longer disk labels. I did a scrub after importing it and it did fine as you can see.

My question is should I be concerned about the different labels? And, I've been trying to find a way to make the labels uniform again (OCD I guess), but haven't been able to find anything.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks

Hey, quit moving this. It's impossible to reply to a moving topic. I was just getting ready to reply and poof, the original topic was gone. :)

You can disable the use of DISKID on your system by including the following statement in /boot/loader.conf
Code:
kern.geom.label.disk_ident.enable=0
and rebooting.
