Hi,
Stupid question I'm sure - I've just upgraded to Solaris Express Dev Edition
(05/07) by installing over my previous Solaris 10 installation (intentionally,
so as to get a clean setup).
The install is on Disk #1.
I also have a Disk #2, which was the sole disk in a ZFS pool under Solaris 10.
Hi,
If I add an entire disk to a new pool by doing "zpool create", is this
reversible?
I.e. if there was data on that disk (e.g. it was the sole disk in a zpool in
another system) can I get this back or is zpool create destructive?
