.\" Example 1 is example 5 from zpool.8.
.\" Make sure to update them bidirectionally
.Ss Example 1 : No Making a non-mirrored ZFS Storage Pool mirrored
The following command converts an existing single device
.Ar sda
into a mirror by attaching a second device to it,
.Ar sdb .
.Dl # Nm zpool Cm attach Ar tank Pa sda sdb
.
.Ss Example 2 : No Expanding a RAID-Z vdev with an additional disk
The following command adds
.Ar sdg
to the existing
.Ar raidz2-0
vdev in
.Ar tank ,
turning a 6-wide RAID-Z2 into a 7-wide RAID-Z2:
.Dl # Nm zpool Cm attach Ar tank raidz2-0 Pa sdg
Progress is reported by
.Nm zpool Cm status .
The operation requires the
.Sy raidz_expansion
pool feature, and
.Ar sdg
must be at least as large as the smallest existing disk in the vdev.
Old blocks keep their original data-to-parity ratio; only blocks written
after the expansion use the new ratio.
