[without digging through the release notes, relying instead on grey memory :-)] This behaviour has changed twice. Long ago, the pools would autoexpand. This is a bad thing, by default, so it was changed such that the expansion would only occur on pool import (around 3-4 years ago). The autoexpand property allows you to expand without an export/import (and arrived around 18 months ago). It is not surprising that various Solaris 10 releases/patches would have one of the three behaviours. -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
