This response was kind of long-winded. So here's a simpler version: Suppose 6 disks in a system, each 2T. c0t0d0 through c0t5d0 rpool is a mirror: mirror c0t0d0p1 c0t1d0p1 c0t0d0p2 = 1.9T, unused (Extended, unused) c0t1d0p2 = 1.9T, unused (Extended, unused) Now partition all the other disks the same. Create datapool: zpool create datapool \ mirror c0t0d0p2 c0t1d0p2 \ mirror c0t2d0p1 c0t3d0p1 \ mirror c0t2d0p2 c0t3d0p2 \ mirror c0t4d0p1 c0t5d0p1 \ mirror c0t4d0p2 c0t4d0p2 Add a spare? A seventh disk, c0t6d0 Partition it. add spare c0t6d0p1 spare c0t6d0p2 _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
