Here's the correct link:

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-2271/6mhupg6ft?a=view

The same example exists on page 52 of the 817-2271 PDF posted on
the opensolaris.../zfs/documentation page.

    Malachi,

    The section on adding devices to a ZFS storage pool in the ZFS Admin
    guide, here, provides an example of adding to a raidz configuration:

    http://docsview.sfbay/app/docs/doc/817-2271/6mhupg6ft?a=view

    I think I need to provide a summary of what you can do with
    both raidz and mirrored configs since you all had trouble finding
    it.

    Thanks for the feedback,

    Cindy
