of common SLA here original cluster had 1024 drives with 16 drives per erasure set with default parity of '4', second pool is expected to have a minimum of 8 drives per erasure set to match the original cluster SLA (parity count) of '4'. '12' drives stripe per erasure set in the second pool satisfies the original pool's parity count.

Refer to the sizing guide with details on the default parity count chosen for different erasure stripe sizes [here](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/mas...
