Solaris ZFS question
What I am trying to do is reuse space that was used from an old solaris zone and take that space used in the 2 disk mirror from the 2nd zpool and relocate it to /var/audit in the root pool. The pysical server has 4 disks. 2 disks are a mirrored root zone(c1t0d0s0,c1t1d0s0) and the other were the mirrored pool(c1t2d0s0,c1t3d0s0) that the zone ran off of.

I have been able to succesfully remove the remove and uninstall the solaris zone. I am now trying to add these two disks c1t2d0s0 and c1t3d0s0. These partitions use a slice that is the whole disk.

I have tried to add the 2 reclaimed disks to the root pool mirror with "zpool add rootpool mirror c1t2d0s0 c1t3d0s0" and also by adding -f. This give me the error:

cannot add to 'rootpool': root pool can not have multiple vdevs or seperate logs.

What am I missing? I though I could add the 2 disks to the rootpool mirror. Then I wanted to somehow grow the rootpool/audit filesystem to include the new disk space.

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.
