ZFS Nexenta: please advise howto add a disk to pool (forced command line)
Posted on 2013-01-07
Hi,
ZFS Nexenta: please advise howto add a disk to pool (forced command line).
setup volume syspool via ssh gives me option to add extra disk but because size is different, it tells me to use -f (force) option. However, I don't find this option.
Existing LUN : c0t5d0
New LUN to attach : c0t4d0
Attach 'c0t4d0' to form a mirror configuration (or be added into existing mirror, if it exists) alongside 'c0t5d0' in the volume 'syspool'? Yes
Make sure that 'c0t4d0' is not part of an exported volume. Hint: use
-f (force) option to ignore the warning and carry out the operation.
Note: any risks on putting two different sizes of disks as mirrored disk?
Please advise.
