In the interim, does it makes sense for a simple rule of thumb?
For example, in the above case, I would not have the hole if I did
any of the following:
1. add one disk
2. remove one disk
3. use raidz2 instead of raidz
More generally, I could suggest that we use an odd number of vdevs
for raidz and an even number for mirrors and raidz2.
I have a 12-drive array (JBOD). I was going to carve out a 5-way
raidz and a 6-way raidz, both in one pool. Should I do 5-3-3 instead?
