Hi. I've been reading the ZFS admin guide, and I don't understand the distinction between "adding" a device and "attaching" a device to a pool?
"attach" is used to create or add a side to a mirror. "add" is to add a new top level vdev where that can be a raidz, mirror or single device. Writes are spread across top level vdevs. Hope that helps. Perhaps the zpool man page is clearer.
