Information on pool degradation

[matt.anti]

Hi everybody,

I would like to understand something about the degradation of the pool:

I created a pool in RAIDZ1 with 4 disks + 1 spare disk

I removed a disk to simulate failure and the spare disk correctly replaced it.

Now the pool is in a degraded state, do I have to manually replace the "broken" disk to get it back into an online state or does it come back on its own and just have to wait for the raid to be rebuilt?

Thanks for the replies

The pool should return to an ONLINE state once the spare finishes resilvering. Look at zpool status -v in the Shell to check the status of the resilver. Once the resilver is done, you can replace the disk, and the spare will go back to being a spare.

Ok, thanks for the reply
