pool vdev… |
Adds the specified virtual devices to the given pool. The
vdev specification is described in the
Virtual Devices section of
zpoolconcepts(7). The behavior of the
-f option, and the device checks performed are
described in the
zpool
create subcommand.
- -f
- Forces use of vdevs, even
if they appear in use or specify a conflicting replication level. Not all
devices can be overridden in this manner.
- -g
- Display vdev, GUIDs
instead of the normal device names. These GUIDs can be used in place of
device names for the zpool detach/offline/remove/replace commands.
- -L
- Display real paths for
vdevs resolving all symbolic links. This
can be used to look up the current block device name regardless of the
/dev/disk path used to open it.
- -n
- Displays the configuration that would be used without
actually adding the vdevs. The actual
pool creation can still fail due to insufficient privileges or device
sharing.
- -P
- Display real paths for
vdevs instead of only the last component
of the path. This can be used in conjunction with the
-L flag.
-
-o
property=value
- Sets the given pool properties. See the
zpoolprops(7) manual page for a list of valid
properties that can be set. The only property supported at the moment is
ashift.
