Hello!

I just received an mail from my freenas-fileserver with the following message:
The volume z2pool state is DEGRADED: One or more devices are faulted in response to persistent errors. Sufficient replicas exist for the pool to continue functioning in a degraded state.

The pool is an z2 pool with 4 drives (Seagate Archive 8TB) attached to an IBM1015 controller. I just ran an lengthy write operation to the volume (40GByter) and I fear the problem might have occured due to the hard disks overheating, as the server ist standing in a badly ventilated position at the moment. Or maybe it is caused by these SMR hard drives to become slower and slower with persistent writes. I expect the hard disks to probably run fine again after cooling down. Also I want to check the SATA connectors. But at the moment I have the system just running, because I don't want to change anything or even shutdown before consulting you.

I hope you can help me get this running again.
Thank you very much!

PS:
I have shut the server down now, because I think keeping it running in this state until there's a solution is too critical.

Hello, thank you for your support!

I have opened the case and replugged all plugs on the hard drives. One had come halfway lose, maybe because opf vibration?
I turned the server on and it automatically started resilvering. Now at about 30% ...

Edit:
OK, the resilvering has run trough successfully! :)
Think I will now start a scrub on the pool.
Thank you very much!
