(I presume that you meant to use c2t2d0s5 as the second slice) You've already created your pool, so all you want to do is attach the new slice to be a mirror of one that is already in the pool: zpool attach export c2t0d0s5 c2t2d0s5 This will create a mirror between c2t0d0s5 and c2t2d0s5 First be sure that slice 5 on c2t2d0 is at least the same size as c2t0d0s5. If c2t2d0 is unused, you can copy the vtoc from the first disk to the second one with a simple command: prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0s2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c2t2d0s2 Since you're on x86, you may need to run fdisk against c2t2d0 if it is a virgin drive. /dale _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
