https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D178473 --- Comment #1 from Jan Bramkamp <crest@bultmann.eu> --- ZFS won't see the I/O request fail because geom_multipath retries all paths into eternity instead of reporting failure. This might trigger the ZFS dead= man timer an panic() the system if enough geom_multipath providers are affected. The worst part is that rebooting a system with a defective disk behind geom_multipath hangs during (re-)boot and won't even reach single user mode until geom_multipath is unloaded or the defective device is removed. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
