Are you sure the "Permanent errors" are (or were) actually permanent?

If they are, you should get an error message when cat'ing the
supposedly affected files to /dev/null and the files should show
up again when scrubbing the pool without deleting any files first.

Depending on the error, reading the files again can also trigger kernel
messages that could be useful to analyse the problem.

I'm not using VMware, but in my experience ZFS treats some temporary
errors in non-redundant configurations as permanent until the pool
is scrubbed. It happens rarely, so I haven't properly looked into this
yet.
