Hi Stephen, No, you can't replace a one device with a raidz device, but you can create a mirror from one device by using zpool attach. See the output below.
The other choice is to add to an existing raidz configuration. See the output below. I thought we had an RFE to expand an existing raidz device but I can't find it now. Examples of these operations are included in the ZFS admin guide: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-2271/gayrd?a=view Cindy zpool attach: # zpool create waldenpond c1t23d0 # zpool attach waldenpond c1t23d0 c1t24d0 # zpool status waldenpond pool: waldenpond state: ONLINE scrub: resilver completed with 0 errors on Mon Oct 29 11:06:14 2007 config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM waldenpond ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror ONLINE 0 0 0 c1t23d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c1t24d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 zpool add: # zpool create goldenpond raidz c1t17d0 c1t18d0 c1t19d0 # zpool add goldenpond raidz c1t20d0 c1t21d0 c1t22d0 # zpool status goldenpond pool: goldenpond state: ONLINE scrub: none requested config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM goldenpond ONLINE 0 0 0 raidz1 ONLINE 0 0 0 c1t17d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c1t18d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c1t19d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 raidz1 ONLINE 0 0 0 c1t20d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c1t21d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c1t22d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 errors: No known data errors Stephen Stogner wrote: > Hello, > Is there a way to replace a standalone drive with a raidz implimentation > with zfs? > > > ie zpool replace bigpool c2t1d0 raidz c2t3d0 c2t4d0 c2t5d0 > > etc.. > thanks > > > This message posted from opensolaris.org > _______________________________________________ > zfs-discuss mailing list > zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org > http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
