Is it X stripes consisting of Y disks? > Sorry. Took a short cut on that bit. It's x data disks + y parity. So in the case of raidz1, y=1; in the case of raidz2, y=2. And ideally x should be a power of 2. (So 8+2 is a raidz2 stripe of 10 disks in total.) I've always used this notation, but now I think about it I'm not sure how universal it is. -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/
