That's also proper RAID5/6 maintenance. My main/recent familiarity is with LSI hardware RAID implementation, where they call it a "patrol read". I believe mdraid has checkarray. I'm not sure if you meant to imply that ZFS is different from standard RAID in this regard, but it doesn't seem as though it is.

It's called scrubbing.

  Did you mean to reply to my above question? If so, I'm unclear as to what you're trying to get across. Is ZFS scrubbing different than the other RAIDs' (scheduled or schedulable) reads of the entire array, other than nomenclature?
