July 8, 20232 yr My google-fu skills might be leaving me as I'm getting older, but I honestly tried to find any related information. I have 2 ZFS pools set up: - datapool (raidz2 across 6 HDD + 1 spare) - recpool (mirror across 2 HDD, no spare) Back in the pre-native ZFS age, I ran the ZFS plugin which allowed me to implement the spare drive for the raidz2 pool. Once the native ZFS became available, I was able to move the 2nd pool (mirror) fine. How would I move the datapool to maintain the original configuration (+1 spare drive) as below?

The downside of running the ZFS Plugin on the latest Unraid is that every time I have to reboot the server, the "zfs plugin" zpool gets disconnected and I must reimport it manually every time. What would be my best course of action? Thanks!
