I'm still here. Watching this thread and only getting more and more confused. The zpool seems to be convinced that another device should exist. Have you ever had a ZIL or L2ARC?
Also, I'm impressed that you haven't gone off doing things you shouldn't do. This is by far the longest I've seen an OP go without deciding to doing something stupid despite everyone telling you not to do anything without direction. It's also the most troubleshooting I think I've ever seen for someone's data. I'm sure the two are related.
I'm really hoping we can figure out what is going on and get you your data back. I'm not sure if you're being patient because you know your wife will kill you if she figures out how bad things are right now, or if you are that "cool headed". In any case, keep up the good work. I'm rooting for you!
In regards to your comment: "ZIL or L2ARC" I can answer no. I looked into it, but you needed a SSD or something, which I didn't haven and it was to much work at that time (in my opinion), so I didn't do that.
Well the data is pretty important to me, that's why I am happy with the help I am getting currently, though my posts reveal otherwise, I am still kinda anxious. However I am currently considering the data last, thought I didn't tell the wife that just yet of course. And about being "cool headed", I was pretty down and semi angry past weekend when this stuff appeared to be gone in the first place. However what use is it to anyone, especially to everyone who is trying to help me out here, to get short tempered or anything...? Not much. And as mentioned above; I am currently seriously considering everything to be lost. So even the smallest "result" would mean a (small) victory in this particular case.

2012-12-04.07:43:18 zpool replace storage 6201553240551106299 gptid/3dc2f956-3de6-11e2-8af1-00151736994a.
Last scrub was the 23[sup]rd[/sup],
2013-02-23.23:23:34 zpool scrub storage.
Boot up mfsBSD normally and run:
Code:
zpool import -V storage
If that "imports", given the other error messages, the pool will most likely be considered
faulted. Which also means you can't actually do anything with it.
Ought to show us what devices it considers missing.
Now here is the weird part (maybe not for you, but for me it is)... I have ran the command "zpool import -V storage" already a few times earlier (few posts back), however every time I run it it doesn't report anything back at all.
Just the prompt.
Code:
root@mfsbsd:/root # zpool import -V storage
root@mfsbsd:/root #
This happened also before...?
The other command shows this:
Code:
root@mfsbsd:/root # zpool status -v
pool: storage
state: FAULTED
status: The pool metadata is corrupted and the pool cannot be opened.
action: Destroy and re-create the pool from
a backup source.

Don't know if this helps.

This didn't show before...?
Indeed...!
I looked up previous posts in this thread and it would show this instead:
Code:
[root@freenas] ~# zpool status
no pools available
Does this mean anything?!
