W/ solaris getting larger disks for a pool was quit easy. Simply replace one disk from a mirror for a larger one, wait for the resilvering and after this replace the second one for a larger disk and wait for the resilvering again. That's it. Been there, done that. But my feeling tells me it is not that simple for a FreeBSD zfs root system, or is it?
