Hi Ian,
I might misunderstand your plan. I assumed you'll throw in a small boot
drive as the zfs root pool.
ZFS root pool can be a mirrored pool, so you don't need to use SVM mirror.

Thanks for the heads up.
I'm building a new file server at the moment and I'd like to make sure I
can migrate to ZFS boot when it arrives.
My current plan is to create a pool on 4 500GB drives and throw in a
small boot drive.
Will I be able to drop the boot drive and move / over to the pool when
ZFS boot ships?
Yes, should be able to, given that you have already had an UFS boot
drive running root.
Thanks.
As I intend setting up my pool as a striped mirror, it looks from the
the other postings like this will not be suitable for the boot device.
So an SVM mirror on a couple of small drives may still be the best bet
for a small sever.
Ian
