Yes, but that doesent make it any easier to setup to begin with.
I hate having to make metadata slices by hand, instead of vxvm where
you just say "add this disk".  Then you tell it "do x with these disks".

I kinda cheated tho, on my DS setup on this machine - I put the metadata
slices on a couple of unused small drives, then just made the mirrored stripes
out of c1t<x>d0s2 on four drives.  That way I didnt have to manualy repartition
them first...
