Jean-Paul, Regarding your comments here:
Expected because s0 is defined as 0 bytes in the partition table I presume? Yes, you need to put the disk space into s0 by using the format utility. Use the modify option from format's partition menu is probably the easiest way. Email me directly if you need the steps. > > ~$ pfexec zpool add rpool cache c8t0d0s2 > cannot add to 'rpool': invalid argument for this pool operation > ~$ > > Should this have worked? No, because s2 has a special meaning with a VTOC (SMI) label. After you fix the disk partitions, everything should just work. :-) Cindy Jean-Paul Rivet wrote: >>Put the disk space of c8t0d0 in c8t0d0s0 and try the >>zpool add syntax again.
