Orphan disks

Gmox

Hello all,

I'm performing some test in my lab storage.

I wanted to create "orphan" disks and try to found a way to recover the fail aggregate.

I have been able to got orphaned disk but don't found how to recover.

If someone has a lead or any clue, it will be much appreciate.

Plex /aggr_test_orphan/plex0 (offline, failed, inactive)

Thank you

One three disks have failed, the data is gone. The only way to recover the aggregate is to bring the last failed disk back online. For 7 mode, you need to remove it from the failed-disk-register and try to reread the aggregate. raid_config info showfdr is probably the starting point for 7 mode in a lab context, but if you actually care about the data, please contact an enterprise data recovery company like Kroll ONTRACK or Drivesavers.
