I have a rather small ZFS pool on a 7-STABLE machine composed of 4 disks
in raidz-1. One of the drives was giving me fits and acting flaky so I
got a warranty replacement for it, however that drive as well as another
both started giving DMA timeout/LBA write errors simultaneously
lastnight. I was able to bring the machine back up after it locked (no
crash/panic it just locked up) and do a scrub to get the pool online. I
then powered down and disconnected the drive that was giving the
majority of the errors. When the system came back up it says the pool
is faulted, re-attaching the disk I removed does not resolve the fault
and the raidz mentions corrupt metadata. I though I might be able to
export/import the array but that also failed. The array did export but
now refuses to import saying I/O error. If anyone could give me some
insight on how I could get this pool back online just long enough to
snag the data I would be really appreciative. I will also be more than
happy to provide any other detailed information you may need just let me
know.
Thank You,
