HAST different disk sizes

[Clayton Milos]

It works no problem on partitions. I’ve been running it for some time without any issues on partitions between 2 sites on different L3 networks, sometimes under heavy load.

        on OSL2EXPORT1 {
                local /dev/da0p3

        }
}

In my case, the drives on each host are very different in size: 500GB and 1TB.  If HAST can be run on partitions, how are drives of different sizes handled?  It seems unlikely, in the real world, that drives are going to be the same size unless they are the same model from the same vendor.
