As long as 1 vdev is striped and not mirrored, that's true. You can only afford to lose a vdev, if your vdev itself is mirrored. You could, for example, create 2 vdev's of raidz2, and instead of striping them together, mirror them. Then you could lose one of the raidz2's, and the other half of the mirror is still up. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
