If anyone is interested in tackling this project, I found a blog spelling out how to go about it at http://blogs.sun.com/ahl/entry/expand_o_matic_raid_z. That also spells out their position on the priorities related to this project.
I'm not in an enterprise situation, nor in a home situation, but rather an edu department. We cannot afford to just go out and buy another 5 drives or so whenever we want to expand a zpool (by adding another raidz to it). Typically, a faculty member with a research grant will want some more space, and we ask them to buy a drive. I would love to be able to just add that drive to an existing raidz. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
