[geeks] Solaris: zfs does not allow copies option

Several articles on ZFS say on a single drive you can use the copies  
option to make ZFS keep multiple copies of data just like it does  
metadata, allowing ZFS to repair errors even on a single drive.

However:

% zfs set copies=2 sys/home
cannot set property for 'sys/home': invalid property 'copies'

Did they remove this feature?

So far I can't find out what the deal is.
