Thanks for the reply. I didn't get very much further.
Yes, ZFS loves raw devices. When I had two devices I wouldn't be in this mess. I would simply install opensolaris on the first disk and add the second ssd to the data pool with a zpool add mpool cache cxtydz Notice that no slices or partitions were used. But I don't have space for two devices. So I have to deal with slices and partitions. I did another clean install in 12Gb partition leaving 18Gb free. I tried parted to resize the partition, but it said that resizing (solaris2) partitions wasn't implemented. I tried fdisk but no luck either. I tried the send and receive, create new partition and slices, restore rpool in slice0, do installgrub but it wouldn't boot anymore. Can anybody give a summary of commands/steps howto accomplish a bootable rpool and l2arc on a ssd. Preferably for the x86 platform. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
