[b]Short Version[/b] I used zpool add instead of zpool replace while trying to move drives from an si3124 controller card. I can backup the data to other drives and destroy the pool, but would prefer not to since it involved around 4 tb of data and will take forever. [b]zpool add mypool c4t2d0[

I have a zpool issue that I need to discuss. My application is going to run on a 3120 with 4 disks. Two(mirrored) disks will represent /export/home and the other two(mirrored) will be /export/backup. The question is, should I create one zpool or two to hold /export/home and /export/backup? Cur

Chris, I agree that your best bet is to replace the 128-mb device with another device, fix the emcpower2a manually, and then replace it back. I don't know these drives at all, so I'm unclear about the fix it manually step. Because your pool isn't redundant, you can't use zpool offline or detach.

yes, I was thinking about this but I wanted to just remove the whole 128mb disk and then use format to repartition this complete disk to give it full capacity... I have all the disks setup this way so I wanted to be consistent with it but its not letting remove that disk at all from the pool...1
