One of the reasons I like using Arch is because it challenges me. It is stable enough for me to use daily, and difficult enough to cause me to think, work and solve my problems. I enjoy these types of problems and derive satisfaction when I solve them.

I need challenges in life because it's what helps drive me to get up everyday and live life.

~zpool clear [dev] command fixed my longstanding frustration. One HDD was being reported as degraded for a long time. After running spinrite on it twice, all sectors were reporting healthy. Yet, TruNAS kept reporting it as degraded.

After running the zpool clear command a few days ago, TruNAS shows everything as healthy and it is running well.

So after a couple of days of problems with my custom built #TruNAS server (been in service since 2018), I found that one of the SATA buses on the mboard died. I was wondering why I lost 2 of my 6 HDDs. A third drive had a degraded state, but I ran #Spinrite and fixed that. I moved the other 2 HDDs to a PCIe SATA card. The HDDs in the pool were not coming back, so had to use #archlinux live to fdisk them. Now they're resilvering. #linux #nas
