Thank you. I'm no expert in ZFS TBH (We use Lustre much more) but, IIRC, when I was benchmarking the then new Sun Oracle ZFS 7320, I remember it was resilvering the disks after especially torturous loads, at night.

Maybe it was specific to the appliances (Our behemoth 7420 did the same) or, something was wrong. I remember Oracle/Sun guys jokingly asking me whether I succeeded to make it resilver the disks and, hearing it did indeed resilver the disks a dozen times visibly upset them. They've only said that "Pack it up, we need to go".

Fun times, it was.

Hmm, if you had to resilver the disks a dozen times, I would assume that is indication of a hardware failure somewhere in the device (perhaps RAM?).
