Thanks I have restated the question over there.
Just thought this a ZFS question since I am doing Sparc ZFS root mirrors.

I have done similar manipulations to experiment with ZFS
(using files instead of drives).

Thank you for all of the thoughtful replies everyone.
Tomorrow I will attempt the procedure you so kindly outlined Marc.
A couple of follow up question, have you done anything similar before? Can you
assess the risk involved here? Does the fact that the pool is currently at 90%
usage change t
So after tinkering with lucreate and luactivate I now have several boot
environments but the active one is unfortunately not bootable.
How can I access the luactivate command from boot:net?
boot net:dhcp -s
mkdir /tmp/mnt
zpool import -R /tmp/mnt rpool
I poke around in /tmp/mnt but do not find

Nobody?
Should I open a bug report?
Maybe some more info: The port the broken disk was attached to is no used by
the new boot device containing a fresh zpool. I didn't want to loose all
information from the old root pool, so I decided to use another disk
temporarily.
Is it possible that the zpo

Is there anything better than star? That was what I planned to use. Simple,
cheap, and compatible with just about anything :)

PS. Without backups, single parity raid really isn't something I'd recommend
with 1TB drives. Personally I'd take backups of any critical files and start
migrating as soon as I could.

As others have said, you're kind of stuck. I'd wait until you have another 1TB
drive, then replace all 3 on your second pool. That really is the easiest way
to add capacity.
However, with 6 drives you would be much better off with a single raid-z2 pool,
and it's probably easier to change conf

Hello all. I was hoping to get some advice on how to do this without moving or
losing my data. I have 6 drives in two raidz1 vdevs in a pool. I have 2 new
1TB drives that I would like to add to that pool and replace 3 of the smaller
drives. I'd like to end up with 5 1TB drives in a single ra
I also need this information.
Thanks a lot for keeping me on the loop also
