I have a ZFS raid with 4 samsung 500GB disks. I now want 5 drives samsung 1TB instead. So I connect the 5 drives, create a zpool raidz1 and copy the content from the old zpool to the new zpool.
Is there a way to safely copy the zpool? Make it sure that it really have been copied safely? Ideally I would like a tool that copies from source to destination and checks that the copy went through. A night mare would be if the copy get interrupted, and I have to copy again. How can I be sure that the new invocation has copied everything, from the interruption? Using gnu commander feels a bit unsafe. It will only copy blindly(?), and no more. Will it tell me if something went wrong? How do you make sure the copy has been correct? Is there any utility that does exactly that? (Does cp warn if there was any error?) -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
