If you want to add the entire Solaris partition to the zfs pool as a mirror, use zpool attach -f rpool c1d0s0 c2d0s2 If you want to add the entire physical disk to the pool as a mirror, use zpool attach rpool c1d0s0 c2d0p0 If you want to Extend the pool using the space in the entire Solaris partition, use zpool add -f rpool c2d0s2 If you want to Extend the pool using the entire physical disk, use zpool add rpool c2d0p0 The -f to force is required to override the bug about s2 overlapping with other slices. The above assume you have not modified s2 to be anything other than the entire Solaris partition, as is the default. The only time to use anything other than s2 or p0 is when you specifically want to use less than the whole partition or disk. In that case you need to define slices/partitions. -- Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Arthur C. Clarke My blog: http://initialprogramload.blogspot.com
