Indeed, it can be used on an entire disk. Examples: zpool create mypool c1t0d0 zpool attach mypool c1t0d0 c2t0d0 zpool create mypool mirror c1t0d0 c2t0d0 ... Note the lack of a slice ID in the above command's disk specifications. ZFS will interpret this as "use the entire disk" At that point it will apply a EFI label to the disk and bring it into the pool as specified. This method is preferred over specifying slice 2 (eg, c1t0d0s2) when wanting to use the entire disk for ZFS. /dale _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
