I added a disk to a zpool using "zpool add diskname"
My intention was mirror a zpool disk that no mirror; that is a zpool with only one disk. I did not issue the right command. Now, the disk has been added successfully but I cannot remove nor detach it as Solaris 11 thinks it has data on it (it does not).
How do I remove this disk out of the zpool and re-add it as a mirror? Thank you for your time.

The disk in question is in DEGRADED status right now but the zpool itself is online. I would like to remove and re-add the one in DEGRADED status.

zfsloader
ZFSLOADER(8) BSD System Manager's Manual ZFSLOADER(8)NAME
zfsloader -- kernel bootstrapping final stage
DESCRIPTION
zfsloader is an extended variant of loader(8) with added support for booting from ZFS. This document describes only differences from
loader(8).
ZFS FEATURES
zfsloader supports the following format for specifying ZFS filesystems which can be used wherever loader(8) refers to a device specification:
zfs:pool/filesystem:
where pool/filesystem is a ZFS filesystem name as described in zfs(8).
If /etc/fstab does not have an entry for the root filesystem and vfs.root.mountfrom is not set, but currdev refers to a ZFS filesystem, then
zfsloader will instruct kernel to use that filesystem as the root filesystem.
ZFS COMMAND EXTENSIONS
lsdev [-v]
Lists ZFS pools in addition to disks and partitions. Adding -v shows more ZFS pool details in a format that resembles zpool status
output.
lszfs filesystem
A ZFS extended command that can be used to explore the ZFS filesystem hierarchy in a pool. Lists the immediate children of the
filesystem. The filesystem hierarchy is rooted at a filesystem with the same name as the pool.
FILES
/boot/zfsloader zfsloader itself.
EXAMPLES
Set the default device used for loading a kernel from a ZFS filesystem:
set currdev=zfs:tank/ROOT/knowngood:

The zfsloader first appeared in FreeBSD 7.3.
