The right way to do it, um, incorrectly is to create a striped device using SVM, and use that as a vdev for your pool. So yes, you could create two 800GB stripes, and use them to create a ZFS mirror. But it would be a really bad idea. -B -- Brandon High : bh...@freaks.com _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
