Just want to verify, if I have say, 1 160GB disk, can I format it so that the first say 40GB is my main UFS parition with the base OS install, and then make the rest of the disk zfs? Or even better yet, for testing purposes make two 60GB partitions out of the rest of it and make them a *mirror*? Or do I have to give zfs the entire disk?
yes you can do that and many of us do exactly that on our laptops. I have even done the two slices in the VTOC as sides of the ZFS mirror. Though on a 4200rpm disk that is REALLY bad for performance of writes :-) -- Darren J Moffat _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
