thanks a lot for the detailed response... out of those options, I am leaning toward start again with 200gb instead of trying to append the other 170gb....when you say backup data, is there a way to take a snapshot of the existing pool to an external hd and "paste" it once I have the 200gb solaris instalation?
I am now getting to realize how it is quite useful to have solaris take control of whole disks instead of slices or partitions of it... -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
