The ZFS root pool is installed inside a slice within a partition on your hard disk. You therefore need to expand the partition to the full size of the disk, then expand the slice as well. To do this:
1. pfexec format 2. Select your disk from the list, e.g. press 0 (zero) then enter. 3. Change the "fdisk partition" using fdisk - type fdisk and press enter. 4. Use the fdisk tool to expand the partition. 5. Exit fdisk and return to the main format menu. 6. type partition and press enter. This allows you to change the "partitions" i.e. the slices within the partition. The root slice is slice zero. 7. When you have finished expanding the root slice, exit format. Once you have done this zfs should automatically register the new space available to it. Verify this by issuing the command "zfs list" and check how much space it reports.
