 Thanks, but for starters, where is the best place to find info like this 
 (i.e., the easiest to get started on zfs)?
   

 The main ZFS community site is:
 http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/

 There is a lot of good information and step-by-step examples
 in the ZFS Administration Guide located under the docs
 section:
 http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/docs/
  -- richard

I'd further add that, since there are only 2 zfs related commands[1],
reading the man pages for zpool(1M) and zfs(1M) is a good investment of
time.

[1] I'm aware of zdb, but it's not really relevant to this discussion.

Is there a way to to a create a zfs file system
(e.g. zpool create boot /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s1)

Then, (after vacating the old boot disk) add another
device and make the zpool a mirror?

(as in: zpool create boot mirror /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s1 /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s1)

Thanks!
