Trying to upgrade to snv_91 (same thing when I did snv_90), I get a very unhelpful error message. When I dig deeper, I grow concerned that I am hitting a stupid limit of zfs. Perhaps someone here can shed some light on whether this is a known issue that is being worked.

This is an operation that, to the best of my understanding, should take only a few kilobytes. FWIW, I posted to zfs-discuss a while back (http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/zfs-discuss/2008-June/048207.html) and got not a lot of useful help. This is a disconcerting trend with zfs-discuss - particularly as I have run across reproducible zfs related panics (unrelated to Indiana). I mention my concern with the helpfulness of zfs-discuss here because it is kinda important to the OpenSolaris strategy. -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
