Dead drive in zfs

  • Hi my zfs is like this:


    Is it possible to make it ONLINE without the dead drive?


    The raidz1 did run with 5 x 3TB disks but would it be possible to just make it work with 4 and then just make it smaller.


    I have all the data backed up somewhere else but it would be nice to be able to just tell the raidz1 only to run with 4 disks instead of copying it all back to a new raidz1.



    If yes how would I do that. I think of me as a pretty tech savy guy so I am willing to do some CLI. (Putty) :)


    And then a second question:


    If I get a 4TB disk to replace the dead 3TB disk will it then just only use the 3TB of the 4TB? Or am I wrong?
