Darn straight. Of course those administrators keep asking for it anyway. The VxVM list gets a somewhat consistent stream of requests asking about issues similar to this. Until very recently there was no general tool to help with this. The unsupported method of destroying volume information to create new unique volumes wasn't dangerous enough to keep people from using this technique. :-) ZFS is different enough that the techniques used on VxVM do not apply. -- Darren Dunham [EMAIL PROTECTED] Senior Technical Consultant TAOS http://www.taos.com/ Got some Dr Pepper?
