Hi,
I have a problem with a VDEV disappearing after a failed disk.
Recount:
* The system in question is a striped mirror of 4 VDEVS of 2 drives each
* The system with the issue alerted me via email that a disk (/dev/ada7) FAILED SMART self-check. BACK UP DATA NOW!
* So I took a look at Storage -> Pool -> Status where /dev/ada7 was shown an DEGRADED
* I offlined it according to https://www.ixsystems.com/documentation/freenas/11.3-U3.1/storage.html#replacing-a-failed-disk
* /dev/ada7 was removed from the pool and does not show up in Storage -> Pool -> Staus anywhere
* It does show up in Storage -> Disks as UNUSED
* However /dev/ada7 belonged to a VDEV mirror of 2 drives, it's partner being /dev/ada6
* /dev/ada6 now shows up as a single disk in the VDEV
* I don't see a way to replace the failed /dev/ada7
