Description
This is related to #4047, but warrants a separate bug. During this event, I had following situation:
- see
errors: 6331 data errors, use '-v' for a listin output ofzpool status - run
zpool status -v, get a list of files, remove them - run
zpool status -vagain to verify that all lists are replaced with hex ids (what are those exactly btw? :) - run
zpool scrub, wait for it to finish - find a smaller number of data errors in
zpool status -voutput, containing paths to the same files as the ones referenced before, but present in a snapshot.
By "same" I mean essentially files that were created on a particular zfs volume on timestamp X, then snapshotted a number of times, without ever being modified. As I understand, in this case you'd have multiple paths pointing at the same data structure describing the contents of the file.
After chatting about this on IRC, my suspicion was confirmed - while scrub is finding all of those references to corrupted data, it most likely displays only a single path. In my case, I went through 5 scrub/cleanup cycles before I've noticed this pattern.
