This is equivalent to attaching new_device, waiting for it to resilver, and then detaching old_device. The size of new_device must be greater than or equal to the minimum size of all the devices in a mirror or raidz configuration. new_device is required if the pool is not redundant. If new_device is not specified, it defaults to old_device. This form of replacement is useful after an existing disk has failed and has been physically replaced. In this case, the new disk may have the same /dev/dsk path as the old device, even though it is actually a different disk.
