a vdev that has the same name as the one stored in metadata and that has all VDEV labels in place. If it cannot find a GEOM provider with the given name and all VDEV labels it will scan all GEOM providers for the best match (the most VDEV labels available), but here the name is ignored. In case the ZFS pool is created, eg. using GPT partition label: # zpool create tank /dev/gpt/tank everything works, and on every import ZFS will pick /dev/gpt/tank and not /dev/da0p4. The problem occurs when da0p4 is extended and ZFS is unable to find all VDEV labels in /dev/gpt/tank anymore (the VDEV labels stored at the end of the partition are now somewhere else). In this case it will scan all GEOM providers and will pick the first one with the best match, ie. da0p4. Fix this problem by checking the VDEV/provider name even if we get the same match. If the name is the same as the one we have in pool's metadata, prefer this GEOM provider.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
