I've got a box that I've upgraded to 11.2-U5. I noticed that one of the drives in the boot mirror, a 2.5" Momentus, was showing an end-to-end error.
No problem, I have spare small drives. So I detach the drive, remove it, cable up a replacement, and attach it.
The freenas-boot pool shows the mirror using /dev/ada0p2, and after I attach the replacement drive I see that the 2nd drive is mirrored as /dev/ada1, not /dev/ada1p2.
So I detach that, and run:
gpart backup /dev/ada0 | gpart restore /dev/ada1
and then I re-attach ada1 to the freenas-boot pool. The "Boot Pool Status" now shows the freenas-boot mirror as containing /dev/ada0p2 and /dev/ada1p2. Yay. But I have no indication that /dev/ada1p1 contains a boot loader. I'm not finding anything in the documentation about this.
I gather grub is no longer the way to go, and I'm not seeing in the FreeNAS docs if the answer is boot0cfg, or something else.
What do I need to do to make sure the freebsd-boot (p1) partition has the right stuff in it?
