About dump: Unless you have r151008 or later, you can only use a zvol on a mirror or single-disk pool. Having said that:
zfs create -V <size> newpool/dump
dumpadm -d /dev/zvol/newpool/dump
And for swap (which should be good regardless what "newpool" is...):
zfs create -V <size> newpool/swap
swap -a /dev/zvol/newpool/swap
swap -d /dev/zvol/oldpool/swap
Hope this helps,
Dan
Thanks, Dan, that was EXACTLY what I needed!!! And the "newpool", wich is called "mainpool" here, are mirrored disk, yes.
