I just setup my freenas (FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201509022158) and noticed that i would like to change the ordering of the ada corresponding to my hard drives.
i have been searching around and think i am going cross eyed between reading about device names and GPTID and internal guid......
Is there a simple way to change the order of which hard drives correspond to ada?
I read this thread

specifically this message from Dusan
"ZFS should never get confused when device names change. It doesn't care about the device names, nor GPTIDs. It uses its internal GUIDs that are stored in the vdev labels. On the other hand the FreeNAS GUI can get confused when the device names change and you didn't use GPTID, but you did you the GPTIDs. The "funky number" you see for the original disk is the ZFS internal GUID (it also lists the last known device name to the right "was /dev/gptid/...")."
But again noone talks about how to change the ada numbering.
Thanks in Advance
