Closing this ticket as https://github.com/truenas/zfs/pull/105#pullrequestreview-1190132506 is merged to truenas 2.1 release branch. There is another related PR https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/14181, that is not yet merged but it should not affect the 22.12 release as pools in SCALE are created with autoexpand property that works around the issue. Created https://ixsystems.atlassian.net/browse/NAS-119106 to track the related PR.

Testing Seagate IronWolf 8TB/18TB drives for qualification purposes. Created a mirrored pool to test drive replacement within said pool. Pulled a drive and inserted same family of drive in its place. Worked without issue for 2 cycles. 3rd try resulted in the following error:
Error: [EFAULT] Failed to wipe disk sdb: [Errno 16] Device or resource busy: '/dev/sdb'
For clarification I test with 3 drives when conducting qualifications. So when I replace a drive in this manner within a pool, I am using the same 2 drives in a rotating manner utilizing the FORCE option when replacing a drive that was previously utilized within a pool after the first cycle of testing.
