Hi folks, One of the things I'm really hanging out for is the ability to evacuate the data from a zpool device onto the other devices and then remove the device. Without mirroring it first etc. The zpool would of course shrink in size according to how much space you just took away.
Our situation is we have a number of SE6140 arrays attached to a host with a total of 35TB. Some arrays are owned by other projects but are on loan for a while. I'd like to make one very large pool from the (maximum 2TB! wtf!) LUNs from the SE6140s and once our DBAs are done with the workspace, remove the LUNs and free up the SE6140 arrays so their owners can begin to use them. At the moment once a device is in a zpool, it's stuck there. That's a problem. What sort of time frame are we looking at until it's possible to remove LUNs from zpools? ta, Mark. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
