Re: [zfs-discuss] how to replace failed vdev on non redundant pool?

[Cassandra Pugh]

well, I was expecting/hoping that this command would work as expected:

zpool create testpool vdeva vdevb vdevc

zpool replace testpool vdevc vdevd.

# zpool status reports the disk is reslivered.  

On a (non-mirror or raid) test pool i just created, this command works.  
However, when the disk failed, all I/o was suspended, and I could not replace it as above.  
Even if I forced the command with -f.  

If this were a raidz pool, would the zpool replace command even work?

Non redundant ... Failed ... What do you expect?  This seems like a really
simple answer...  You can't.  Unless perhaps I've misunderstood the
question, or the question wasn't asked right or something...
