Hi list,

I've got a machine running OSOL...can't remember the exact version :/
Hasn't been updated in a while as I couldn't get access to the
repositories.

I normally runs just fine (except for a small problem probably related
to the network card) however today it's really let me down.

I tried to destroy some datasets but the command hung. Couldn't kill
(-9) it. I was also trying to delete some files on another dataset (same
pool) but that eventually hung too.
There were a number of issues with zfs destroy hanging in older builds.
It can still take an age if you are using dedup.

Try booting from a live CD, import the pool, scrub and export.
Thanks for the quick reply. I'm downloading the image again, the
original was on the machine that is down of course :D

I'll try to clean it up from the livecd, but out of interest: I did some
reading since I posted and would I be right in thinking that it might be
trying to continue the destroy, and that it might actually finish
(eventually)?

Possibly, or it could have hung.

You could check for activity with zpool iostat, or truss/dtrace the process doing the delete.
