NAME

     zpool-initialize — write to unallocated regions of ZFS storage pool

SYNOPSIS

     zpool initialize [-c|-s] [-w] pool [device]…

DESCRIPTION

     Begins initializing by writing to all unallocated regions on the specified devices, or all
     eligible devices in the pool if no individual devices are specified.  Only leaf data or log
     devices may be initialized.

     -c, --cancel
             Cancel initializing on the specified devices, or all eligible devices if none are
             specified.  If one or more target devices are invalid or are not currently being
             initialized, the command will fail and no cancellation will occur on any device.

     -s, --suspend
             Suspend initializing on the specified devices, or all eligible devices if none are
             specified.  If one or more target devices are invalid or are not currently being
             initialized, the command will fail and no suspension will occur on any device.
             Initializing can then be resumed by running zpool initialize with no flags on the
             relevant target devices.

     -w, --wait
             Wait until the devices have finished initializing before returning.
