<p dir="auto">I just installed a ZFS pfSense 2.4.2 system (RAID10 ZFS) on a HP DL360G7 (48GB of RAM) I had lying around.</p>
<p dir="auto">I connected all 4 SAS disks to an LSI RAID card (SAS2008-4i) updated to latest firmware in IT mode, as suggested in all the FreeBSD forums for NAS servers) which recognized all 4 disks properly as  individual drives.</p>
<p dir="auto">The install went well as far as I can tell, but everytime I boot I see the following errors, with some variation:</p>
<pre><code>gptzfspool : error 4 LBA xxxxxxxxxx
gptzfspool : error 4 LBA xxxxxxxxxx
gptzfspool : error 4 LBA xxxxxxxxxx
gptzfspool : error 4 LBA xxxxxxxxxx
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">and then pfSense starts without issues.</p>
<p dir="auto">Sometimes there are more and different errors, but at the minimum these errors appear. but it always boots up properly.  Are those errors I should worry about? The drive SMART status are OK, no errors reported.</p>
<p dir="auto">This is meant to be a server installed in a remote location (long drive to fix anything on site) so it needs to be rock solid, and I tend to hunt down even tiny errors until I either fix them or understand them. I don`t understand these right now.</p>
