Zpool unavailable after hardware upgrade

[Gooberpatrol66]

I had a freenas server running 2 mirrored 1tb hard drives in one zpool. I moved to a new motherboard and added 2 more hard drives and the volume disappeared, even though all 4 hard drives are online. How can I get it back?

Code:

zpool import -c /boot/zfs/zpool.cache.bak                    
   pool: Vol1

  state: UNAVAIL                                                              
status: One or more devices are missing from the system.                      
action: The pool cannot be imported. Attach the missing                      
        devices and try again.

zpool import -d /dev does nothing.

Try running a simple;

zpool import -o mountpount=/mnt/Vol1 Vol1

My take is that the new hardware uses a different drive naming convention than
your old hardware. Thus, the ZFS cache file can't pick up the disks. Let ZFS find
the disks for you.

I moved to a new motherboard and added 2 more hard drives and the volume disappeared,

Have you tried to use the GUI to import the pool? If you use the cli, freenas won't be aware of it.

 

[Robert Trevellyan]

Why are you using the -c command-line switch?

I get property 'mountpoint' is not a valid pool property

The pool does not appear in the GUI.

The pool does not appear in the GUI.

Can you provide a screenshot of what FreeNas presents at Step 2 of the "Import Volume" process?

Sorry, it's really;

zpool import -R /mnt/Vol1 Vol1

Sometimes it's hard to get the exact syntax of a command, if you can't try it out.

cannot import 'Vol1': no such pool available

And what is the output of 'camcontrol devlist -v'?

 

[SweetAndLow]

output of glabel list and gpart show?

Looks like your disks aren't connected. Check your cables and controller.

What are the system specs? What is the "Sony card"?

Full hardware listing, please. Before and after. It should've been included right at the start. You can't expect people to guess what you've been doing.

weird, because I see 4 disks under "view disks". I just noticed they all have size of 0, though. Maybe my drive cages are bad?

Just an SD card reader I threw in there because I had nowhere else to put it

Define "full". I have an SSD with freenas on it and 2 1TB hard drives I moved over from a gigabyte z87n motherboard to a supermicro x10srl-f motherboard, and then added 2 blank 1TB drives.

My guess is that they're just the card reader. It shows up as four separate SCSI devices.

Very important detail there. Get rid of everything between the SATA controller and the drives, except for short-ish SATA cables (0.5m maximum). Touch the drives to make sure they've spun up, too.

Doubtful that those 4 disks are what you were expecting, since camcontrol and glabel both show exactly one physical hard disk connected, and that is your SSD boot disk.

Alright, so I connected the drives directly and it mounted. Turns out my drive cages were bad. Thanks guys.
