Not me, every time I set off a zpool scrub (with apologies to TLC):
🎵
Yes, I just want to scrub,
A scrub is a kind of check that gets love from me,
Countin’ out the checksum of your best friend’s drive,
Trying to verify at me

IT Consultant from Germany, Linux enthusiast, BSD fanboy and firmly convinced that Ancient Domains of Mystery is the greatest video game of all time (and always will be). You'll find me here talking about Open Source, self-hosting, advanced networking (proud operator of AS201379), smart home shenanigans, and anything you can torment with a terminal. Cat pictures also welcome. Left, antifascist, vegan. The trifecta your uncle warned you about.

I wrote up my entire backup strategy for my across FreeBSD and Linux:
- ZFS snapshots with sanoid
- Off-site replication via syncoid to rsync.net (encrypted at rest)
- Proxmox Backup Server fronting Backblaze B2 for VMs
- A Podman trick for backing up RHEL hosts without native packages
- Dead man’s switch monitoring
- Quarterly restore tests recorded with asciinema
Real configs included.

There are always alternatives, not "there is no alternative". Married to a wonderful wife with with two adult sons, living in Calgary. I like getting out on my bike. I care about social justice. Unemployed or semi-retired? I would actually love to work (part time? consultation?) with purpose. Ph.D. in physics and nearly 28 year career in IT. "Debts that cannot be paid will not be paid." "The purpose of a system is what it does."

# cat /etc/systemd/system/zfs-iscsi-import.service
[Unit]
Description=Trigger ZFS import after iSCSI availability
After=cloud-init.target
Wants=cloud-init.target
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStartPre=/sbin/modprobe zfs
ExecStart=/bin/systemctl start zfs-import.target
RemainAfterExit=yes
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
#linux #zfs #iscsi
