I'm doing a read-thru of Replacing a Failed Drive for my FreeNAS 9.10 system before actually going through the process.
There is a note after the first step (which is to OFFLINE the disk) that says:
> If the process of changing the disk’s status to OFFLINE fails with a “disk offline failed - no valid replicas” message, the ZFS volume must be scrubbed first with the Scrub Volume button in Storage → Volumes → View Volumes. After the scrub completes, try to Offline the disk again before proceeding.
That "disk offline failed..." message obviously works as an indication that the scrub is needed. But, I like trying to avoid any messages with "failed" in them.
So, I'm wondering if there is a way to tell prior to attempting to OFFLINE a disk if a scrub is required.
Is there some way to figure that out?
