What you can do is: Create a new pool with lun2,lun3 and a sparse file the same size as lun2&3. Get rid of the file. Copy data over from lun1 (old single lun thing) to the raidz (lun2,lun3,missingfile) Destroy old pool replace missingfile with lun1 With this method, the pool is lacking redundancy between step 4 and 5, but requires no extra space. /Tomas -- Tomas Ögren, st...@acc.umu.se, http://www.acc.umu.se/~stric/ |- Student at Computing Science, University of Umeå `- Sysadmin at {cs,acc}.umu.se _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
