But it does have a built-in "scrub" command
Ahhh, ok. I don't want to run scrub just yet cos it's a 5Tb Z2 array, so I'd imagine a scrub would take a bit of time.

What's the output of zpool list?
The zpool appears fine:
$ sudo zpool list
NAME SIZE USED AVAIL CAP HEALTH ALTROOT
data 5.44T 2.19T 3.25T 40% ONLINE -

What's the output of dmesg
dmesg as I said above isn't showing anything that grabs my attention:
$ dmesg |grep -i zfs
WARNING: ZFS is considered to be an experimental feature in FreeBSD.
ZFS filesystem version 6
ZFS storage pool version 6

and looking thru dmesg for the disks:
$ dmesg |grep ^ad
ad4: DMA limited to UDMA33, device found non-ATA66 cable
ad4: 3887MB <TRANSCEND 20070831> at ata2-master UDMA33
ad6: 953869MB <Seagate ST31000340AS SD15> at ata3-master SATA150
ad7: 953869MB <Seagate ST31000340AS SD15> at ata3-slave SATA150
ad8: 953869MB <Seagate ST31000340AS SD15> at ata4-master SATA150

ad12: 953869MB <Seagate ST31000340AS SD15> at ata6-master SATA150

(there's x6 1Tb disks in the RAIDZ2 array and x1 CF card - the OS disk)


Top runs ok - although there's x4 rsync processes running (which were probably from backups being sent that failed) along with a pile of sshd instances.

It's a headless server so I'm connecting over ssh - which works fine.
I get the feeling that if I reboot it'll come good - but I wanna figure out what happened cos this is my backup server and i get kinda nervous when all the data _just drops out_

Do you have background fsck disabled in /etc/rc.conf?
rc.conf didn't have anything explicitly mentioning fsck so I added
background_fsck="NO"
in case the default was YES.

I'm gonna go reboot and fsck now, thanks for the help.
