That's exactly where I made the mistake, a single disk pool and I wanted to attach another disk to build a mirror. I'm now using zfs send and receive to backup the disk to another zpool. Then I want to rename the old and the new zpools and mount the new zpool. Then I can destroy the old zpool, attach the free disks from the old zpool creating a mirror and in the end detach the extra disk from new mirrored zpool. > -- > This message posted from opensolaris.org > _______________________________________________ > zfs-discuss mailing list > zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org > http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss > _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
