Too late . One more ssd kicked the bucket (never buying verbatim again) in the same raidz1 that was already degraded. Luckily set up a replication task when i couldnt replace the 1st failed drive.
Rebbuilt the pool in a single vdev 8 drive raidz2 this (gave the same name as before) time then used replication to restore everything as it was on the old pool. Everything seems to be in order, even the VMs started without touching them after a reboot. But k3s is acting upā¦
