degraded zpool
On Monday night at about 5:30 PM, I noticed the email: ** PROBLEM alert – knew/zpool is CRITICAL **
What sickened me was that the email was sent at 3:58 PM.
That makes me think I should add a Pushover.net alert …. I could do that at my mail server.
Logging into the server, I saw:

Running FreeBSD on OSX using xhyve, a...
bhyve is a hypervisor/virtual machine manager developed on FreeBSD.
xhyve is port of bhyve to OS X. It is built on top of Hypervisor.framework in OS X 10.10 Yosemite and higher, runs entirely in userspace, and has no other dependencies.
