Recreation of storage pool

edited Sep 19, 2017 5:05AM in Disk Storage ZFS Storage Appliance (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

We have project in which customer wants to carve out an additional pool from existing ZFS storage pool. Shrinking is not supported, therefore we have to unconfigure current pool and create new ones.

One pool is intended for Exadata DB backups and another one for Exalytics-based shared storage.

We are concerned that it might be bit risky and impractical, however trying to address below questions/issues:

1) do we have any guidelines/steps/best practices for it?

2) shall we expect any issues (performance/stability) with running 2 different pools (most likely with 2 different data profiles)?

3) do we need 2 sets of hot spares for 2 pools?

Howdy, Stranger!
