Hi!

Is failmode=continue for zpool working correctly?

I have a test pool sitting on the network (which drops out every few 
hours) but all io eventually just hangs instead of failing.

To get the pool back up running (and get rid of all the hung processes) 
I always need to reboot the machine. This is on:
