Device cannot be removed after disk swap

[arnold]

Hi

I swapped our ZIL device with a faster SSD and now i cannot remove the old device. No errors occur, nor anything else. I have tried the GUI, which responds with a friendly "device is removed". On the terminal I have tried the following:

zpool remove storage 2019415436586652525
zpool remove storage /dev/gptid/a5e7d84c-fdb3-11e2-861d-001517e91e14
zpool remove storage gptid/a5e7d84c-fdb3-11e2-861d-001517e91e14

no error messages, and the device is still there.

Suggestions from the community are most welcome.

Everything is still running smoothly.

I detached the device before replacing it, however I could not replace it in the GUI, because the new SSD had a different sector size. Now I'm stuck here.

Freenas version is 9.1.1

I've encountered the same issue whilst trying to do the same on 9.2.1 there are no errors from the cli when you remove, and from the gui it also reports device removed but in the log I see;

gpart: Device busy
gpart: geom 'ada0': File exists
gpart: Device busy
And the pool is degraded if you offline the device instead...

 

[dlavigne]

Did you ever figure this out?

Still not resolved, but I've raised this bug;

I have the absolutely same problem. Why not to remove zil drive after 9.x.x releases?
