While that does certainly work, I recommend you use a mirror as the root pool for redundancy. > Now, I want to get rid of "rpool" in its entirely, I want to > migrate all settings, boot records, files from that rpool to > "gpool" and then add the member of rpool c8t0d0s0 to my existing > "gpool" so that I have a RAIDZ of 6x drives. That will not work, as the pool to boot from needs to be a single disk or a simple mirror. There has been talk about people working on boot from RAIDZ, but I wouldn't bet on it coming soon.
