--- Comment #9 from Andriy Gapon <avg@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Michelle Sullivan)

Replying to multiple comments at once.

Yes, taking a picture of a monitor is a fine last measure.  A serial consol=
e,
real or emulated via, e.g., IPMI or AMT, is better, of course.

The panic looks like a result of a well-known (among developers) and very h=
ard
to fix problem with interaction between GEOM and ZVOLs that arises from usi=
ng
ZFS pools on top of ZFS volumes.  I can not offer you any fix although I ha=
ve
got some work-in-progress on this issue.

I can suggest a work-around: create a FreeBSD VM using the volumes comprisi=
ng
the pool as the VM's disks and run the scrub within the VM.

Besides zpool scrub commands like zpool reopen, zpool split, zpool online [=
-e]
can also trigger the same bug for pools on top of ZFS volumes.
