Not sure if this is going to help you, as I do not know how your restructuring impacts the available space on your old array. Here's an idea: Create a sparse zvol on the new array and attach it to the old array. # mkdir test # mkfile 150m /test/old; mkfile 100m /test/new # zpool create foo /test/old # zpool create bar /test/new # zfs create -s -V 150m bar/vol # mkfile 20m /foo/test.file # zpool attach foo /test/old /dev/zvol/dsk/bar/vol # zpool detach foo /test/old Greetings, Patrick _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
