Operating Systems Solaris Bad disk, how to replace ? Post 303018666 by Peasant on Tuesday 12th of June 2018 10:14:01 PM

In current configuration, you will can do little..
Reason being your configuration (RAIDZ1), allows one disk to fail (which it did).

Other being almost failed, pool is still accessible.
When the degraded disk fails (should happen soon enough), you will lose all the data in zpool.

The course of action should be :
  1. Take a backup using zfs send / receive or copy the data.
  2. zpool offline the FAILED disk from pool.
  3. Unconfigure the offlined disk using cfgadm
  4. Insert a new working drive in the same slot, and configure it using cfgadm
  5. Issue a zpool online / replace against the replaced disk.

zdb

zdb(1M) 						  System Administration Commands						   zdb(1M)

NAME

       zdb - ZFS debugger

SYNOPSIS

       zdb pool

DESCRIPTION

       The  zdb command is used by support engineers to diagnose failures and gather statistics. Since the ZFS file system is always consistent on
       disk and is self-repairing, zdb should only be run under the direction by a support engineer.

       If no arguments are specified, zdb, performs basic consistency checks on  the  pool  and  associated  datasets,	and  report  any  problems
       detected.

       Any options supported by this command are internal to Sun and subject to change at any time.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0    The pool is consistent.

       1    An error was detected.

       2    Invalid command line options were specified.
