I have a FreeBSD-initialised 8-disk vdev, all 10TB WD RED, now on a server with OmniOS r151026, connected via LSI 3008 HBA.



At POST, the card shows all disks with right geometry (I can post picture if necessary).



But format reports a wrong (~ 2TB) geometry:

OmniOS developer Andy Fiddaman suggested to use zpool labelclear.



That worked perfectly and allowed format to properly recognise the disk geometry again.



Thanks to Andy Fiddaman and thanks to illumos for such an outstanding OS.
