Thomas,
Excellent and much better suggestion... :-)
You can use beadm to specify another root pool by using the -p option.
The beadm operation will set the bootfs pool property and update the
GRUB entry.
Dick, you will need to update the BIOS to boot from the smaller disk.
It's not that great an idea after all. Creating a new ABE in the new
root pool goes wel, BUT all other files systems on rpool
(rpool/export, export/home, etc) don't get transfered. So, attaching
is not possible because '/export/home/me' is busy ;-)
But those could be copied by send/recv from the larger disk (current
root pool) to the smaller disk (intended new root pool). You won't be
attaching anything until you can boot off the smaller disk and then it
won't matter what's on the larger disk because attaching the larger disk
to the root mirror will destroy the contents of the larger disk anyway.
