If you have a raidz of say 500G, filled with 300G of data.. then you add another raidz of 500G and start writing.. ZFS will put more data on the second raidz thing to even out the distribution.. > Also, is it possible to explicitly request a relayout; for example can > I convert a raidz1 pool to a raidz2 pool?
