So on the point of not need an migration back. Even at 144 disk. they won't be on the same raid group. So figure out what is the best raid group size for you since zfs don't support changing number of disk in raidz yet. I usually use the number of the slots per shelf. or a good number is 7~10 for raidz1 and 10~20 for raidz2 or raidz3
Create the desvol with that optimized number of disks in one group (or two). do the migration. the once the old volume is destroyed, just added them to the new pool. remember you can expend pool by a raid group at a time just not change the raid group size after that. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
