I think it means there is something pre-existing on that drive. Maybe ZFS related, maybe not. You should probably double-check everything, to make sure there's no valuable data on that device... And then ... Either zero the drive the long way via dd ... or use your raid controller to "initialize" the device, which will virtually zero it the short way ... In some cases you have no choice, and you need to do it the long way. time dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c0t5000C500268CFA6Bd0 bs=1024k _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
