# DO NOT put exit in case we get SOURCEd for the function(?)

# This is a decent method because we can give it arbitrary numbers of disks (up to total defined) 
#   and divide as needed; try 26 2, 24 2, 32 4, 32 8
# NOTE all output lines should have the same length - if you dont you wont have a balanced set of disks
# e.g. 32 6 = invalid config (32 4 = valid) but we just give you output -- real sanity checks are up 2U

# HOW THIS WORKS: 
# Imagine a set of disks sdb..sdcx , 96 in total, set along a slide rule
# "xargs" is our slider/window
# "cut" only prints up to the total number of drives we limit it to
# If $2 >= however many drives we need per vdev, it drops down a line - 
#   giving us the exact short drive names needed to create a zfs pool per-vdev


# Example for 60-bay Storinator from 45drives - gives us 56 usable disks in pool + 3 spares (sdz sday sdaz), and 4 vdevs
# $0  56 14 |column -t

# HOWTO get long-form disks:

# Then use  drive-slicer-get-longform.sh
# ^ Requires output from this script

# PROTIP to add in raidz2 prefix and trailing '\':
# ./zfs-drive-slicer-xargs-simplified.sh 80 8 |while read line; do printf "%s" "raidz2 $line \\";echo ''; done

# ./zfs-drive-slicer-xargs-simplified.sh 20 2 |while read line; do printf "%s" "mirror $line \\";echo ''; done
#mirror sdb sdc \
#mirror sdd sde \
#...
#mirror sdt sdu \

# Triple mirroring
# $ ./zfs-drive-slicer-xargs-simplified.sh 15 3 |while read line; do printf "%s" "mirror $line \\";echo ''; done
