Hello all
I've been looking for some information about usage of a degraded pool. Obviousely, it should be repaired immediately, and there's a lot of information about this on this forum. What I could not find in the forum or the documentation:
- Is it safe to use a degraded pool while (scrubbing /) resilver? What is best practice?
In my case I have a RAIDZ2 with 2 vdefs (16x 4TB SAS drives in total). I am currently paying the price for buying older enterprise HDD's, one left this world without even saying goodbye. I am resilvering, but it takes a looong time. Still I want to provide access to my Plex Server, which sources the data off a freenas dataset. Is this recommended/allowed?
Thanks and kind regards
Alex
