ZFS adding a partition to the "root" pool

I have only one disk, and the format command output looks bellow.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[disk formatted]
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 is part of active ZFS pool rpool. Please see zpool(1M).
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s2 is part of active ZFS pool rpool. Please see zpool(1M).

Now i am trying to add c0t0d0s7 to "root" pool

bash-3.00# zpool add -f rpool c0t0d0s7
cannot add to 'rpool': root pool can not have multiple vdevs or separate logs


It is throwing an error .

What is the way that i can add c0t0d0s7 to "root" pool to increase the "/" space ?


Thanks.
