Was removing old SAN connections off a host and added new dynamic identifier at the same time. Then I went and was deleting expired storage containers and vsphere did an auto refresh and deleted the disconnected storage containers while it added the new ones from the FreeNAS SAN, I inadvertently deleted my fileserver store and right now it is empty after rescans of the HBA in vmware.
Due to nature of ZFS i know the data is still there, but how can i recover it. I have no snapshots prior (only created a two after the disaster) and I can't roll back to them because FreeNAS says cannot rollback 'FILESERVERStore' dataset is busy. I'm too scared to reboot the SAN and try a restore after, I want to maintain as much of this in its exact state as possible.
Any insight anyone can shed would be greatly appreciated. I have to be abel to recover this. I don't care if 3rd party specialist need to get involved, i'm open to recommendations.
Thank you to anyone involved and yes I know I should have backups
