Hi,
I decided to go from 2 RaidZ1 pools to a single mirrored Pool, so I backed up all my data, destroyed the original pool and build a new pool.
When I created the pool in the GUI and attempted to apply changes I kept getting "Error: The changes could not be applied (error code 1)."
So I went ahead and created the pool in the CLI
I have 14 2TB drives so the pool has 7 mirrors so I expect to see 14TB storage available, however I am only seeing 12. what Am I doing wrong, should I start over and re-install from scratch? Thanks for your help

Re: Missing Disk Space
From my system
You can se that the 2G drive only has 1.8 Tbyes. The difference is main due to disk drive maths. (to convert HDD Byes to TB divide 1024x1024)
There is also some space reserved for ZFS - I think about 1/64 of the space.
That brings you to in the ball park of what you are seeing
