Just a quick question - have you considered using autoexpand here? Replacing each of the 1TB Drives with 2TB drives and waiting for the pool to resilver means you'll be going from a 4TB pool to a 8TB pool with no downtime whatsoever (given you can hotswap).

Det er et elementært imperativ for alle pedagoger å unngå eksessiv anvendelse av idiomer med fremmed opprinnelse. I de fleste tilfeller eksisterer adekvate og relevante synonymer på norsk. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
