Just a quick search of the CAM code, and it looks like -HEAD does handle
the CAPACITY DATA HAS CHANGED message.. sys/scsi/scsi_da.c:3537...
A reboot would definately fix it, though it sounds like you're trying
to avoid that...
It also looks like a reopen of the device would reprobe the size...
You could try to zpool replace w/ it self, but that might not cause
a reopen, or if it's part of a mirror/raidz volume, you could
offline/online the device and then it should have the new sizes... In
my experience, zfs will detect the device already has valid data on
it, and not have to resilver the whole device, but as usual, make sure
you have good backups.. :)
A zpool export/import would obviously do the same thing...
Hope this helps.
