So I forgot a drive when I set up my RAIDz and now I cannot add it back into the RAIDz I created. I have to blow away everything and then start over.
I have two large (70TB and 16TB) raw disks that probably have <10TB of data actually written onto them.
What's the best way to backup/restore these so I can rebuild the entire thing? I assume that compression will actually take care of the unwritten space.
Setup an NFS server? Use an additional physical disk?
Just trying to get a primer on a game-plan here.
Thanks so much,
Henry
