Err... I think you guys are talking cross purposes here. Either I'm missing
the point completely, or are you not aware that the Thumper2 includes a flash
storage slot so the OS doesn't use any of the 48 disks any more?
No, it's not mirrored, but Richard was trying to point out that it's likely

I appreciate that this is quite a substantial work. Just off the top of my
head, each member of the RAIDZ has to have the same boot block information,
then as you bring the RAIDZ up you h
He means that you can have two types of pool as your root pool:
1. A single physical disk.
2. A ZFS mirror. Usually this means 2 disks.
RAIDZ arrays are not supported as root pools (at the moment).

What do you mean about "mirrored vdevs" ? RAID1 hardware? Because I have only
ICH9R and opensolaris doesn't know about it.

You don't. Today, only simple or mirrored vdevs are

Hi,
Using the opensolaris installer I've created a raidz array from two 500GB hdds,

How do I install opensolaris on raidz array?
