Hi all: First; it is possible modify the boot zpool rpool after OS installation...? I install the OS on the whole 72GB harddisk.. it is mirrored so If I want to decrease the rpool; for example resize to a 36GB slice it can be done? As far I remember on UFS/SVM I was able to resize boot OS disk via detach mirror (so tranforming to one-way mirror); ajust the partitions then attach de mirror. After sync boot form the resized mirror; re-doing the resize on the remaining mirror and attach mirror and reboot. Dowtime reduced to a reboot times.
Second: In the first can't be done; I was guessing I could increase rpool size via adding more hard disk. As you know that must be done with SMI labeled hard disk; well I have tried change the start cyl; changed the label type almost everything and I still get the error zpool add rpool mirror c1t2d0 c1t5d0 cannot label 'c1t2d0': EFI labeled devices are not supported on root pools. partition> print Current partition table (original): Total disk cylinders available: 24620 + 2 (reserved cylinders) Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 home wm 0 - 24619 33.92GB (24620/0/0) 71127180 1 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 2 backup wm 0 - 24619 33.92GB (24620/0/0) 71127180 3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
