Take a look at partitions. If you have 0-7 or 0-15, you have an SMI label.

Assuming the first sector is the same before and after, this should all be correct. Can you do zdb -l <diskname> after the resize? Do you get any data? -- Darren _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
