From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Do you mount the drives using their
/dev/sdX
entries or via UUID? Because it sounds like you're using/dev/sdX
entries (which you really shouldn't, because their names can randomly change, by design). Use/dev/disk/by-id/...
directly for mounting or, alternatively, fill/etc/zfs/vdev_id.conf
(see example below) and define the pool using their aliases.I use the ZFS mechanism exclusively today, so I'll have a look at the
vdev_id.conf
file as soon as I find the time, thank you!Also, sorry for not responding earlier, I've had some busy days.
