If more than one log device is specified, then writes are load-balanced between devices. Log devices can be mirrored.

A cache device cannot be configured as a mirror or raidz group.These devices provide an additional layer of caching between main memory and disk. For read-heavy workload,where the working set size is much larger than what can be cached in main memory, using cache devices allow much more of this working set to be served from low latency media. Using cache devices provides the greatest performance improvement for random read-workloads of mostly static content.</span> | | **[http://wiki.scalelogicinc.com/nx2/Add_read_cache http://wiki.scalelogicinc.com/nx2/Add_read_cache] |

These devices are not actively used in the pool, but when an active device fails, it is automatically replaced by a hot spare. To create a pool with hot spares, specify a "spare" vdev with any number of devices.Once a spare replacement is initiated, a new "spare" vdev is created within the configuration that will remain there until the original device is replaced. At this point, the hot spare becomes available again if another device fails.If a pool has a shared spare that is currently being used, the pool can not be exported since other pools may use this shared spare, which may lead to potential data corruption.Spares cannot replace log devices.</span> | | **[http://wiki.scalelogicinc.com/nx2/Add_spare_disks http://wiki.scalelogicinc.com/nx2/Add_spare_disks] |
