ZFS pool I/O failures

Type:	Error
Severity:	Major
Description:	The ZFS pool has experienced currently unrecoverable I/O failures.
Automated Response:	No automated response will be taken.
Impact:	Write I/Os cannot be serviced.

Suggested Action for System Administrator

The pool has experienced I/O failures. Since the ZFS pool property failmode is set to ‘continue’, read I/Os will continue to be serviced, but write I/Os are blocked. See the zpoolprops(8) manpage for more information on the failmode property. Manual intervention is required for write I/Os to be serviced. You can see which devices are affected by running zpool status -x:

# zpool status -x
  pool: test
 state: FAULTED
status: There are I/O failures.
action: Make sure the affected devices are connected, then run 'zpool clear'.

          sdb9      ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: 1 data errors, use '-v' for a list

After you have made sure the affected devices are connected, run zpool clear to allow write I/O to the pool again:

# zpool clear test

If I/O failures continue to happen, then applications and commands for the pool may hang. At this point, a reboot may be necessary to allow I/O to the pool again.
