Sure it is also looks like this to me. Merge keyword simple mean that this filesystem on parent system should not have entry in /etc/vfstab at all. In general LU creates ABE partition set and mount them all / on /a and all other under it, and then simple copy everything using
"find / -print | cpio ..." It is pretty simple idea and implementation, so when merge keyword processed it just ignore that entry, that file-system (it was initially done by me). And way it is handled in this case really looks like merge now treated as device name. I think you may verify this by runing LU without merging - just to test what happen. If you have similar problem then it is legitimate to blame svm, but it is not clear right now that this is the case. vassun This message posted from opensolaris.org
