I searched around and really only came up with one 'relevant' thread that was almost four years old and didn't really have an answer. I'm running FreeNAS 11.1-U6 and have two shelves - the main one contains the processing power, controllers, etc and has a dual expander backplane which provides redundant connections to the two controllers, the second shelf is a JBOD unit that currently has a single expander backplane, but I've got a dual expander backplane coming for this one. Once the dual expander backplane is in, I believe the VDev should come right back up on the original disk IDs, but that would be over a specific path, not multipath, so as-is, if the active path were to go down, the VDev would go down. I thought I had read something on the subject a bit back, but have been unable to find it again. How would I go about migrating the VDev in the external JBOD enclosure from the current singlepath setup over to multipath when I get the new backplane installed (The applicable SAS discs, of course), without blowing it all away and recreating it?
