NAME

       zfs-events - Events created by the ZFS filesystem.

DESCRIPTION

       Description of the different events generated by the ZFS stack.

       Most  of  these  don't  have  any description. The events generated by ZFS have never been
       publicly  documented.   What  is  here  is  intended  as  a  starting  point  to   provide
       documentation for all possible events.

       To  view  all  events  created  since  the  loading  of  the ZFS infrastructure (i.e, "the
       module"), run

       zpool events

       to get a short list, and

       zpool events -v

       to get a full detail of the events and what information is available about it.

       This man page lists the different subclasses that are issued in the case of an event.  The
       full event name would be ereport.fs.zfs.SUBCLASS, but we only list the last part here.

   EVENTS (SUBCLASS)
       checksum
                   Issued when a checksum error have been detected.

       io
                   Issued when there is an I/O error in a vdev in the pool.

       data
                   Issued when there have been data errors in the pool.

       delay
                   Issued when an I/O was slow to complete as defined by the zio_delay_max module
                   option.

       config.sync
                   Issued every time a vdev change have been done to the pool.

       zpool
                   Issued when a pool cannot be imported.

       zpool.destroy
                   Issued when a pool is destroyed.

       zpool.export
                   Issued when a pool is exported.

                   regenerated) have been detected.

       vdev.unknown
                   Issued  when  the  vdev is unknown. Such as trying to clear device errors on a
                   vdev that have failed/been kicked  from  the  system/pool  and  is  no  longer
                   available.

                   Issued when corrupt data have been detected on a vdev.

       vdev.no_replicas
                   Issued  when  there are no more replicas to sustain the pool.  This would lead
                   to the pool being DEGRADED.

                   the  device  isn't there any more. This is usually followed by a probe_failure
                   event.

       vdev.remove
                   Issued when a vdev is detached from a mirror (or a spare detached from a  vdev
                   where it have been used to replace a failed drive - only works if the original
                   drive have been readded).

       vdev.clear

       probe_failure
                   Issued  when  a  probe  fails  on a vdev. This would occur if a vdev have been
                   kicked from the system outside of ZFS (such as the  kernel  have  removed  the
                   device).

       log_replay
                   Issued when the intent log cannot be replayed.  The can occur in the case of a

   I/O STAGES
       The ZFS I/O pipeline is  comprised  of  various  stages  which  are  defined  below.   The
       individual  stages  are  used  to construct these basic I/O operations: Read, Write, Free,
       Claim, and Ioctl.  These stages may be set on an event to describe the  life  cycle  of  a
       given I/O.

   I/O FLAGS
       Every I/O in the pipeline contains a set of flags which describe its function and are used
       to govern its behavior.  These flags will be set in  an  event  as  an  zio_flags  payload
       entry.
