What's your vdev configuration? I was able to import all my RAIDZ pools, but not the mirrored pools.

vdev config? Not sure what the question is, but I don't run striped or mirrored. I just have one pool per drive. I was seeing corruption with HFS and ZFS is just safer no matter what mode. Since I've got online backup, I didn't see the need to run mirrored.

With those drives connected, please run two commands:

Code: Select all
diskutil list


Code: Select all
sudo zpool import


– and paste (as code) the outputs to this topic.

What model is the Mac? How much memory?

What makes and models are the drives?

For each drive, is the connection FireWire, USB or Thunderbolt?

I'm mounting the drives using Truecrypt. So a drive will show up twice. disk6 is the drive mounted. I then do a zpool import

Code: Select all
/dev/disk3
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
   0:                                                   *1.5 TB     disk3
/dev/disk6
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
   0:                                                   *1.5 TB     disk6


Doing a zpool import using ZEVO returns with nothing.

Please see the related topic: zevo with Truecrypt volume; there's a link to a workaround.

actually, after reading it. What is the actual work around? Using the symlinks? Or doing the partition?

As it relates to TrueCrypt (not specific to MacZFS), let's make this most useful for future readers:

  • discuss under the TrueCrypt topic.

Thanks.
