Unable to zpool drive: is in use and contains a unknown filesystem

hard drivezfszpool

Created raidz1 drive array on CentOS8. Five drives and after reboot zpool would not load.

Did a zpool import -a, to import the zpool and datasets. I had a missing drive, which bugs me to no avail, I've been using ZFS for awhile and always use /dev/disk/by-id names. I tried replacing drive with same drive using zpool replace and got the drive is in use and contains unknown filesystem. The drive is available by dev/disk/by-id name and /dev name.

I wiped drive using wipefs –all. I remove partitions with gdisk, and still received the error.

And, I physically replaced the drive with another drive and still received that error.

How can I get this drive back in the zpool?

I have attached a zpool status and lsblk.

Best Answer

I was able to add the drive by removing multipath signature.

I did a "multipath -ll" to get a listing of all the signatures, then did a multipath -f {MULTIPATH NAME}" and then was able to executed zpool replace to add drive back to zpool.
