Nice. Is there any reason to prefer GPT labels over
glabel on the raw disk like so?
NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
zfs ONLINE 0 0 0
raidz2 ONLINE 0 0 0
label/disk100 ONLINE 0 0 0
label/disk101 ONLINE 0 0 0
label/disk102 ONLINE 0 0 0
label/disk103 ONLINE 0 0 0
label/disk104 ONLINE 0 0 0
label/disk105 ONLINE 0 0 0
Could GPT labelled disks be read on a Solaris host
without further modification?
Thanks,
