Monitor Pool Expansion....?

Hi, we are expanding the Performance pool by additing 5 more drives of the same type and size.  Where can I monitor the restriping and when it finishes?  Thanx.

    Do we have restriping under such configuration, i dout it, because the current data doesn't need to be restriped to the new disks.

    No restriping will occur when the pool is expanded. New data will be written to the new disks until those disks have approximately the same utilization as the existing disks, after which new data will be written across all of the disks.
