Replacing a Failed Disk in ZFS on Proxmox 🛠️

I walk through the process of replacing a failed disk in a ZFS pool on a Proxmox server. This is something you might face if you're running a Proxmox setup, whether in a homelab or a live environment like ours.

I’ll show you how to identify the failed disk, safely replace it, and restore your ZFS pool to full working order. Even though this is a test server, the steps apply to any Proxmox setup that uses ZFS. If you’re dealing with a disk failure, this guide will help you get things back on track.

Let’s dive in and fix that failed disk!
