Hey guys,
My FreeNAS server is just a repurposed old web server for now and I don't feel like it could handle the memory demands of a proper zpool. As such, I'm stuck with UFS. I'd like to add an extra drive to my system as a plain old mirror but all of the suggestions/tips/guides I'm finding are for ZFS volumes and seem to require lots of time in a Linux console. Is there an easy way to add a new drive as a mirror to an existing UFS volume without recreating the volume, thus deleting all my data? I've got backups I can restore from but I'd like to avoid taking the effort to do so if possible.
Thanks!
