Expect reduced performance. action: Replace affected devices with devices that support the configured block size, or migrate data to a properly configured pool. scan: scrub repaired 0 in 0h6m with 0 errors on Mon Feb 2 19:17:26 2015 config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM nsc1-base-la ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror-0 ONLINE 0 0 0 da0p3 ONLINE 0 0 0 block size: 512B configured, 1048576B native da1p3 ONLINE 0 0 0 block size: 512B configured, 1048576B native I understand why you want to print "non-native block size" warnings in case of 512B/4K mismatch, but for the CCISS that seems to report a native block size of 1Mb, this is not providing useful information. To the contrary, this is clogging the output of the daily "periodic" mail (if daily_status_zfs_enable=YES is enabled, which I do to see if some issues arise) with lengthy extra text, requiring to skim much more stuff to see "is something really broken, or is this just the usual programme". dmesg on controller and disks, for reference: ciss0: port 0x4000-0x40ff mem 0xfdf80000-0xfdffffff,0xfdf70000-0xfdf77fff irq 18 at device 8.0 on pci11 ciss0: PERFORMANT Transport ciss0: got 2 MSI messages] ... da0 at ciss0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 da0: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-5 device da0: Serial Number P675MU2201 da0: 135.168MB/s transfers da0: Command Queueing enabled da0: 69973MB (143305920 512 byte sectors: 255H 32S/T 17562C) da0: quirks=0x1 da1 at ciss0 bus 0 scbus0 target 1 lun 0 da1: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-5 device da1: Serial Number P675MU2201 da1: 135.168MB/s transfers da1: Command Queueing enabled da1: 69973MB (143305920 512 byte sectors: 255H 32S/T 17562C) da1: quirks=0x1 (not using the RAID controller for actually RAID setups, just to present JBOD to FreeBSD, and using ZFS for RAID. Using a different controller is not really an option on blade server hardware) While this touches the same area as 187905, it's actually a different issue as cciss hides the true block size. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
