Yup, that's the gotcha. AFAIK autoexpand is off by default. You should be able to use "zpool online -e" to force the expansion though. > you should get the additional capacity as soon as the resliver for each one > is done, and the old 2TB LUNs should be reclaimable as soon as it's > reslivered out. Minor correction: the additional capacity is only usable after a top level vdev is completely replaced. In case of stripe-of-mirrors, this is as soon as all vdev in one mirror is replaced. In the case of raidzX, this is when all vdev is replaced. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
