ZPOOL-RESILVER(8)

💖 NAME 💖

zpool-resilver — the girl who goes and resilvers devices in ZFS storage pools ✨

It's the zpool-resilver manual page, section 8 (that's the System Manager's Manual, bestie 🎀), and she's here to fix your pool's vibe after a drive situation. 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

zpool resilver pool…

That's it. That's the whole summoning ritual. pool… means one or more pools, and yes you literally just type their names. 💅

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so here's the tea 🫖: this command starts a resilver of the pools you name. Resilver = the pool rebuilding/repairing itself onto its drives, and it's the main character of this whole operation. 👑

Real talk though, if an existing resilver is already running, this doesn't politely queue up behind it — it gets restarted from the beginning. Like, full do-over. All that progress? Gone. So maybe check first, bestie, that's all I'm saying. 😭

Also: any drives that were scheduled for a deferred resilver get folded into the new one. They don't get left behind — they get added to the new resilver. 🫶

Heads up: this whole thing requires the resilver_defer pool feature. No feature, no deferred-resilver party. That's not a vibe, that's just a fact. 💀

That's the page, babes. This one's brought to you by OpenZFS, dated July 11, 2022, and yeah — it's the ZPOOL-RESILVER(8) page from the System Manager's Manual, same girl, just with better energy. Go resilver something (after you check status, obviously). Slay. 💖✨
