Hi
I'm running a raidz2 one pool setup. A picture of the disks I have available is here:

I'm replaced disk labeled da3 (the old had failed), I removed the drive and connected the new one. The new one is listed as unused.

Now I'm trying to use this new drive as part of the pool.

Here is what my pool looks like:

da3 is showing up to add to the pool. How do I do this?

Click the arrow next to SPARE to expand it. The old da3p2 GUID will be displayed. Click the 3 dots next to it, and select Replace. When the dialog appears, pull down to the new da3.
