# ZFS Research on Alice
### State of Alice after Shutting down
```
/dev/sdg ata-JAJS600M2TB_AA202100000031004406
/dev/sdh ata-JAJS600M2TB_AA202100000031004409

[root@alice]: /dev/disk># zpool status
pool: data
state: ONLINE
status: Some supported and requested features are not enabled on the pool.
The pool can still be used, but some features are unavailable.
action: Enable all features using 'zpool upgrade'. Once this is done,
the pool may no longer be accessible by software that does not support
the features. See zpool-features(7) for details.

It looks like `/dev/sdg` and `/dev/sdh` (the problematic disks) are in `mirror-2`.
### Hypothesis
We believe that `zfs` is responsible for the high iowait and io utilization on NFS
### Observation
Removing ZFS snapshots on Alice caused a spike in IO utilization
```bash
zfs list -t snapshot
zfs list -t all
zfs list -H -o name -t snapshot | xargs -n1 zfs destroy
```

### Removing ZFS snapshots
