The fix for CR 6844090, zfs should be able to mirror to a smaller disk,
was supposedly integrated into b117, which is now available for SXCE
and OpenSolaris.  I have not tested it yet, though. If you test it, please
report your experience.

Hi cindys,

That recovery procedure seems overly complex.  I've instead purchased a disk to 
mirror my root pool onto.  Unfortunately, it seems that the disk is slightly 
smaller than my current rpool.  However I would be happy to have a mirror the 
same size as the smaller disk.  Is there a way to mirror onto a smaller disk, 
or alternately to send the root pool to the smaller disk, boot from it, then 
mirror to the larger one?

Thanks,

Lydgate
