I just needed to rollback my "/" partition on my running OpenSolaris system snv108. I was not sure if it would work because my "/" partition was mounted in read-write. When I executed "zfs rollback -r mysnapshot", the system loaded a while and then hanged. I just saw with the virtual console switching an I/O error message. I pressed the RESET button on my PC and then I was able to start my old snapshot without any kind of problem! I found only a core file of the zfs command in "/". There was written "Bus error". I can try to reproduce this if somebody is interessted what is written in the core.
OpenSolaris is a very powerful operating system. I did not know that it was so simple to rollback a running root-filesystem without any kind of dataloss! -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
