Furthermore, zpool status shows the storage pool and the boot pool, it does no longer show the “apps” pool.

Hi all,

For now irrelevant reasons I installed a mirror of 2 new Patriot P210 SSD’s of 256GB and used it as my “Apps” pool. I was unsatisfied with the vast incline of checksum errors emerging within mere months, and so I decided to replace them with new 500GB WD SSD’s.

Replacement initially looked successful however, I found out I clearly made a mistake and ended up with a weird VDEV that was lacking redundancy but was not fully striped either. I executed a replication task of the data from the "apps"pool, that was still in tact, to the storage pool.

I recreated a VDEV of the new SSD’s, now correctly in mirror. I ran the replication task to the new “apps” pool but was not able to get the applications up and running. Most of them crashed and didn’t seem to find any of the restored data. I tried to find the “Apps” pool snapshots but could not find them anymore.

Then finally my plan was to reinstall the old SSD’s and to try to replace them, one by one in a correct manner but I end up with below screenshot and am unable to reconfigure the original “apps” pool.

Does anyone with more experience have any solid ideas for me how to proceed from here?!

Oh, and Apps were installed from the apps catalog in prepared datasets, not the default hidden .ixsystem datasets
