ZFS - Pools - Expand a ZFS Pool

zpool add - This adds a vdev to a pool. This generally results in more storage space.

zpool attach - This attaches a device to a vdev in the pool. This generally results in more redundancy.


Attaching disks

A Disk can be attached.

zpool attach testpool ada1 ada4   

NOTE: This will add ada4 to whichever vdev has ada1.

  • This results in no capacity increase.

Detaching Disks

A disk can also be detached:

zpool detach testpool ada4
