ZPOOL-REGUID(8)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this is zpool-reguid(8) from the System Manager's Manual, and it's literally the command that generates a new unique identifier for a ZFS storage pool. That's it. That's the serve. 💅✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

zpool reguid [-g guid] pool

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So like, zpool-reguid generates a new unique identifier for the pool. 🦋

But before you run it, you must ensure that all devices in this pool are online and healthy before performing this action. Like, all of them. Online. Healthy. If they're not? Do not proceed. This is a vibe check for your hardware, and it has to pass. 💀

• -g guid — set the pool GUID to the provided value. The GUID can be any 64-bit value accepted by strtoull(3) in base 10. And if the provided GUID is already in use, zpool-reguid will return an error. So no stealing someone else's number, bestie. It's not cute. 🙈

Go peek at zpool-export(8) and zpool-import(8) too, bestie. They're part of the family. 💖

That's the whole manual, periodt. Sending you love from OpenZFS, dated August 26, 2024. Go be the main character of your storage pool. 💖🦋✨
