ZFS is one of my favorite file systems. I use it at home on my nas server (running FreeBSD) as well as my Fedora 32 desktop. Today, I’m going to show you (and my future self) how to replace a (faulty) disk in a Zpool. The server I’ll be working on is nas2 and the pool is tank. List the status of the current pool. Password: root@nas2:~ # zpool status tank pool: tank state: DEGRADED status: One or more devices could not be opened....

I know, right? :P Anyway, I need to pair a bluetooth mouse, Logi MX Anywhere 2S, with this Fedora laptop. I had a similar post a while back about connecting Bose QC35 to Fedora 29. So this is quite similar to that post. First, ensure that bluetooth.service is running:...
