Hi Alex,

Not exactly. Just hadn't thought of that specific example yet, but its a 
good one so I'll add it.

In your case, ZFS might not see the expanded capacity of the larger disk 
automatically due to a recent bug. For non-root pools, the workaround to 
see the expanded space is to export and import the pool, but you can't
export an active root pool. So, as Tim says, reboot after the disk is
replaced and the bootblocks are installed.

Ask Santa for another disk, so you can create a mirrored root pool.
