Code:
root@solaris:~# zpool create stripe c0t5000CCA0568AF944d0 c0t5000CCA0568CFAC4d0
vdev verification failed: use -f to override the following errors:
/dev/dsk/c0t5000CCA0568AF944d0s0 contains a ufs filesystem.
/dev/dsk/c0t5000CCA0568AF944d0s6 contains a ufs filesystem.
Unable to build pool from specified devices: device already in use

If you are sure you can drop these ufs file systems, add the `-f` flag (force).

If i want to add another disk use this command:

Code:
zpool add stripe c0t5000CCA05687FB84d0

Correct?

I have format disk using low level format. What happen if i cancel it? I want to add this disk in current in zfs file system. Is there any problem occur?
