That's why I'm asking. I think it should always mirror the partition table and
allocate exactly the same amount of space so that the pool doesn't suddenly
change sizes unexpectedly and require a disk size that I don't have at hand, to
put the mirror back up.

Do note, that though Frank is correct, you have to be a little careful around
what might happen should you drop your original disk, and only the large
mirror half is left... ;)

You can just do fdisk to create a single large partition. The attached
mirror doesn't have to be the same size as the first component.

Cindy, will it ever be possible to just have attach mirror the surfaces,
including the partition tables? I spent an hour today trying to get a
new mirror on my root pool. There was a 250GB disk that failed. I only
had a 1.5TB handy as a replacement. prtvtoc ... | fmthard does not work
in this case and so you have to do the partitioning by hand, which is
just silly to fight with anyway.

Do you still need to do the grub install?

Hi Anon,
The disk that you attach to the root pool will need an SMI label
and a slice 0.
The syntax to attach a disk to create a mirrored root pool
is like this, for example:
# zpool attach rpool c1t0d0s0 c1t1d0s0
Thanks,
Cindy

On Solaris 10 If I install using ZFS root on only one drive is
there a way
to add another drive as a mirror later? Sorry if this was discussed
already. I searched the archives and couldn't find the answer.
Thank you.
