ZFS provides its own mirroring and it is superior, as it checksums each block and thus does not rely on the drive returning an error to detect problems. It can also rewrite a bad block (assuming the problem is transient) and scrub also relies on independent components. You're destroying the data integrity advantage that ZFS gives you by using a gmirror under it. Stop doing that and see if your problem disappears. (In other words it sounds like the problem is real but you shouldn't be doing that anyway, so it also shouldn't bite you.) -- -- Karl karl@denninger.net [-- Attachment #2 --] 0 *H 010 + 0 *H O0K030 *H 010 UUS10UFlorida10U Niceville10U Cuda Systems LLC10UCuda Systems LLC CA1/0- *H customer-service@cudasystems.net0 130824190344Z 180823190344Z0[10 UUS10UFlorida10UKarl Denninger1!0 *H karl@denninger.net0"0 *H 0 bi՞]MNԿawx?`)'ҴcWgR@BlWh+ u}ApdCF JVй~FOL}EW^bچYp3K&ׂ(R lxڝ.xz?6&nsJ +1v9v/( kqĪp[vjcK%fϻe?iq]z lyzFO'ppdX//Lw(3JIA*S#՟H[f|CGqJKooy.oEuOw$/섀$삻J9b|AP~8]D1YI<"""Y^T2iQ2b yH)] Ƶ0y$_N6XqMC 9 XgώjGTP"#nˋ"Bk1 00 U0 0 `HB0U0, `HB OpenSSL Generated Certificate0U|8 ˴d[20U#0]Af4U3x&^"408 `HB+)https://cudasystems.net:11443/revoked.crl0 *H gBwH]j\x`( &gW32"Uf^. ^Iϱ k!DQA g{(w/)\N'[oRW@CHO>)XrTNɘ!u`xt5(=f\-l3<@C6mnhv##1ŃbH͍_Nq aʷ?rk$^9TIa!kh,D -ct1 00010 UUS10UFlorida10U Niceville10U Cuda Systems LLC10UCuda Systems LLC CA1/0- *H customer-service@cudasystems.net0 + ;0 *H 1 *H 0 *H 1 140516133655Z0# *H 1@g)IHB.0l *H 1_0]0 `He*0 `He0 *H 0*H 0 *H @0+0 *H (0 +710010 UUS10UFlorida10U Niceville10U Cuda Systems LLC10UCuda Systems LLC CA1/0- *H customer-service@cudasystems.net0*H 1010 UUS10UFlorida10U Niceville10U Cuda Systems LLC10UCuda Systems LLC CA1/0- *H customer-service@cudasystems.net0 *H a]ZN ;:gJK읙00ӺKW t'qΌ,N0ϸ]<{8nMTOd[)A`ߠG4ف#Euod\_SN/ a,Ѕ-RJ0;]O?ӷ Ar;"JSM/U: 堊Sz%@%{ wД\aGsB\7:%bthm=5w%G=?0zU`Ff'ES047+jϣLMvG4Xӹ_c 9߀:Z_+,t֑`<J i"λ-Y>uxiRߪ;L"hjFCQ2)&30WfRJQ_'ݭ\$/HUQANO=@`t?bw8^^9gf1w'!JPbepErYvT&
