Here is my situation:
I am running the latest stable release of 11.1.
I have a volume of ZFS1 which consist of 6 WD Red Pro 4TB drives.
ada4 died on me a few days ago with a constantly lit drive status LED.
FreeNas also started to act like not serving GUI even though the server was appearing on the network etc. after the drive failed.
I was going to replace the disk and re-silver the new one as per the usual method; offlining the faulty disk, powering the server down, replacing the physical disk and issuing the replace command to initiate pool re-silvering.
However, server does not boot normally unless I remove the dead disk, and I cannot offline the member disk as it appears Unavail when I do.
I am stuck. Any suggestions?
Thank you.
