Hi,
I have an encrypted pool that is comprised of a 2 disk mirror. I'm new to ZFS so wanted to check redundancy. I shut down, removed one of the disks, and rebooted. The pool was degraded, but accessible. All good.
However, after shutting down again and re-inserting the disk I had removed, the disk then showed as "unused" and the pool remains degraded.
I've managed to re-attach the drive using some of the commands described in this blog post, but it appears to be resilvering the whole drive (which seems unnecessary as the drive already contained all the data).
What's the recommended way to re-attach an (encrypted) mirror to a pool, and Is it possible to do withoput resilvering the whole drive?
Thanks for any pointers/advice!
