Yes, will this require some additional interactions. The big question is WHY export/import works fine for L2ARC device = (cache), but not for log (ZIL device) ? Well, I tried to partition and then label (via glabel) slices on both = ZIL and L2ARC, the created a new pool with labels. Result is the same - L2ARC gets attached upon import, but not ZIL. GUID reported by 'zdb' is the same for ZIL-partitions on both HU (as = well as for L2ARC). The size of cause is the same. //mxb On 13 apr 2013, at 19:53, Adam Nowacki <nowakpl@platinum.linux.pl> = wrote: > On 2013-04-13 19:33, mxb wrote: >>=20 >> Hello list, >>=20 >> I'm currently have 2x Head Units (HU) [FreeBSD 9.1] connected to the = same JBOD via SAS Expander. >> Each HU has separate ZIL and L2ARC devices.
