Hi all I've a Sun X4500 with 48 disk of 750Go
The server come with Solaris install on two disk. That's mean I've got 46 disk for ZFS. When I look the defautl configuration of the zpool zpool create -f zpool1 raidz c0t0d0 c1t0d0 c4t0d0 c6t0d0 c7t0d0 zpool add -f zpool1 raidz c0t1d0 c1t1d0 c4t1d0 c5t1d0 c6t1d0 c7t1d0 zpool add -f zpool1 raidz c0t2d0 c1t2d0 c4t2d0 c5t2d0 c6t2d0 c7t2d0 zpool add -f zpool1 raidz c0t3d0 c1t3d0 c4t3d0 c5t3d0 c6t3d0 c7t3d0 zpool add -f zpool1 raidz c0t4d0 c1t4d0 c4t4d0 c6t4d0 c7t4d0 zpool add -f zpool1 raidz c0t5d0 c1t5d0 c4t5d0 c5t5d0 c6t5d0 c7t5d0 zpool add -f zpool1 raidz c0t6d0 c1t6d0 c4t6d0 c5t6d0 c6t6d0 c7t6d0 zpool add -f zpool1 raidz c0t7d0 c1t7d0 c4t7d0 c5t7d0 c6t7d0 c7t7d0 that's mean there'are pool with 5 disk and other with 6 disk. When I want to do the same I've got this message : mismatched replication level: pool uses 5-way raidz and new vdev uses 6-way raidz I can force this with «-f» option. But what's that mean (sorry if the question is stupid). What's kind of pool you use with 46 disk ? (46=2*23 and 23 is prime number that's mean I can make raidz with 6 or 7 or any number of disk).
