replace hard drive

[dwoodard3950]

I have a 4 drive system with the following zpool status;

Code:

[root@modica] ~# zpool status -v
  pool: vol1
state: ONLINE
scan: resilvered 1014G in 14h30m with 0 errors on Sun Sep 22 01:56:55 2013

I replaced da1 what is listed here using zpool replace and used /dev/da1 as the designation rather than gptid. I did this as I was unable to find the gptid listed in glabel status as shown below;

Code:

[root@modica] ~# glabel status
                                      Name  Status  Components
gptid/ec903797-9eeb-11e2-ad51-0025900b7d99    N/A  da0p2
gptid/77143cf1-fbde-11e2-a2e9-0025900b7d99    N/A  da2p2
gptid/faffa65c-9e55-11e2-aed3-0025900b7d99    N/A  da3p2
                            ufs/TrueNASs3    N/A  da4s3
                            ufs/TrueNASs4    N/A  da4s4
                    ufsid/4e9c56ddb45aed19    N/A  da4s1a
                            ufs/TrueNASs1a    N/A  da4s1a
                            ufs/TrueNASs2a    N/A  da4s2a

And

Code:

[root@modica] ~# gpart show

However, camcontrol shows the device is present.

Code:

Why does da1 not show up in glabel or gpart? How do I get it to restore so I can then replace this position with the gptid? I expected this drive to be formatted and partitioned properly when I inserted the drive and rebooted.

My version is Truenas

Code:

[root@modica] ~# cat /etc/version.truenas
TrueNAS-8.0.4-RELEASE-x64 (6198)

 

[dlavigne]

Code:

[root@modica] ~# cat /etc/version.truenas
TrueNAS-8.0.4-RELEASE-x64 (6198)

Is this TrueNAS or FreeNAS? If TrueNAS, have you created a support ticket?

 

[dwoodard3950]

It is truenas and I have sent an email regarding support. I am however beyond my 1 year of support, so I'm waiting to see what will come of it. In the meantime, I thought I'd try the forums in an effort to debug.

 

[dlavigne]

Wow, that's a really old version. Good luck!

 

[dwoodard3950]

I got the unit in July 2011 and I think I upgraded from 8.01 spring 2012. Not too old... Reluctant to upgrade as this is in a production environment and I have to make arrangements to bring the system offline with 2 weeks notice.

Why does da1 not show up in glabel or gpart?

Why would it? You didn't GPT partition or glabel the drive. You simply used the whole disk.

I expected this drive to be formatted and partitioned properly when I inserted the drive and rebooted.

Does TrueNAS do that for you? FreeNAS doesn't. It's not worth the loss in redundancy to "fix" this drive. If you have another spare available, a free drive bay and it is bothering you sufficiently then first manually partition the disk. Then create a temporary 3-way mirror, zpool attach vol1 gptid/ec903797-9eeb-11e2-ad51-0025900b7d99 NEW/GPTID. After it finishes resilvering zpool detach vol1 da1.
