Hi bartus11
Thanks for the advice & reply also. But we dont have third disk for live upgrade, in our case s0 is having full disk space assign to it in zfs root pool.. So could you help us by providing the command to detach the mirrored root pool as well as if patching get fails how to boot from detached mirror root pool. As we are bit new to ZFS. If same thing need to be done on UFS then we are well aware of detaching the SVM & booting the disk from second mirror.
Thanks

DPM-ADDPOOL(1) DPM Administrator Commands DPM-ADDPOOL(1)
NAME
dpm-addpool - define a new disk pool
SYNOPSIS
dpm-addpool --poolname pool_name --def_filesize defsize [ --def_lifetime def_lifetime ] [ --def_pintime defpintime ] [ --gc_start_thresh
perc ] [ --gc_stop_thresh perc ] [ --gid pool_gids ] [ --group pool_groups ] [ --help ] [ --max_lifetime max_lifetime ] [ --max_pintime
maxpintime ] [ --ret_policy retention_policy ] [ --s_type space_type ]
DESCRIPTION
dpm-addpool defines a new disk pool.
This command requires ADMIN privilege.
OPTIONS
pool_name
specifies the disk pool name. It must be at most CA_MAXPOOLNAMELEN characters long.
defsize
specifies the default amount of space reserved for a file. This is by default in bytes, but the number may also be post-fixed with
'k', 'M' or 'G' for kilobyte, Megabyte and Gigabyte respectively.
def_lifetime
specifies the default time a space or volatile file is kept in the system (in seconds).
defpintime
specifies the default time a file is kept on a given disk (in seconds).
gc_start_thresh
specifies the minimum free space in the pool. If the percentage of free space goes below this value, the garbage collector is
started. Default is 0.
gc_stop_thresh
specifies the percentage of free space in the pool above which the garbage collector is stopped. Default is 0.
max_lifetime
specifies the maximum time a space or volatile file is kept in the system (in seconds).
maxpintime
specifies the maximum time a file is kept on a given disk (in seconds).
pool_gids
if not zero, the disk pool is restricted to this comma separated list of group gids.
pool_groups
if set and not "ALL", the disk pool is restricted to this comma separated list of group names.
retention_policy
specifies the retention policy supported by the disk pool. It can be R (for Replica), O (for Output) or C (for Custodial). Default
is R.
space_type
indicates the type of space supported in the disk pool. It can be V (for Volatile), D (for Durable), P (for Permanent) or - (to
accept any type). The latter is the default.
EXAMPLE
dpm-addpool --poolname Volatile --def_filesize 200M --s_type V
EXIT STATUS
This program returns 0 if the operation was successful or >0 if the operation failed.
