[SOLVED] ZFS data volume lost after power failure

[sgala]

Hello,

Here Proxmox 4.1

I have (had) a ZFS volume with some VM. The server had a power lost. After the boot the ZFS volume is not readable/mounted.

SDB is a raid volume on a Adaptec 6405E and the volume at the controller level is Ok.

What I can do to recover the situation? It's happened only to me?

Thanks for any help...

Hi Matteo,

Why did you run your ZFS on top of a RAID (That is clearly not the configuration ZFS is written for)? Do you have only one vdev in your pool and that is now corrupt? That's really bad :-(

I never encountered a problem like this, yet I hopefully never will. You normally give ZFS all the power over all raw devices and let it do its magic. A disk failure is inevitable, yet then easy fixable.

I can only suggest to ask on #zfsonlinux (IRC) for help.

I did this command:

root@pve:/# zpool import -F -d /dev/disk/by-id/ zfspool1
cannot import 'zfspool1': a pool with that name already exists
use the form 'zpool import <pool | id> <newpool>' to give it a new name

root@pve:/# zpool list
NAME SIZE ALLOC FREE EXPANDSZ FRAG CAP DEDUP HEALTH ALTROOT
zfspool1 1.81T 1.23T 592G - 35% 68% 1.00x ONLINE -

the volume now it is ONLINE up & running.
