[SOLVED] ZFS autoreplace

[devilrunner]

I wanted to create a Zpool with 2 mirrored USB devices that was able to autorecover/replace when one of the USB disks was removed and reattached later.
I have read that there is a property in ZFS that could do that; I am not able to get this working however in proxmox.

What I did;

1. Created my devices by-path in /etc/zfs/vdev_id.conf and ran udevadm trigger
alias USB01 /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:00:14.0-usb-0:2:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:0 alias USB02 /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:00:14.0-usb-0:1:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:0

2. Formatted them GPT
parted /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:00:14.0-usb-0:2:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:0 mklabel gpt parted /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:00:14.0-usb-0:1:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:0 mklabel gpt

3. Created the ZFS Pool
zpool create "ZFS_Pool_RAID1-USBs" mirror USB01 USB02

4. Installed ZED and added to zed.rc
ZED_SPARE_ON_CHECKSUM_ERRORS=10 ZED_SPARE_ON_IO_ERRORS=10

5. Added the properties to the ZFS Pool
zpool set autoreplace=on ZFS_Pool_RAID1-USBs

When I remove one of the disks the ZFS Pool is degraded.
When I reattach the disk that went offline the Pool is NOT reinstated as normal and I have to manually
zpool online ZFS_Pool_RAID1-USBs USB0*

Is this a bug or am I just doing it wrong?

Did you attach a new disk or the old used one? Anything in the message log from zed? Was zed running while you tested this?
