I want to migrate one of my ZFS root filesystem to a new disk on the same server. Can someone please guide me for the same? This is a Solaris 10 box running on Intel.

# df -h /setup
Filesystem size used avail capacity Mounted on
root/ROOT/zfsroot/setup
134G 63G 30G 69% /setup

Regards,
Mahive.

You can use live upgrade for this.

- Create a separate pool with the new disk
- Create a new boot environment [BE] on new pool
- Activate the new BE
- Reboot to boot with new BE.

You can follow the link http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E...rkz/index.html

Regards,
Vishal
