[OpenIndiana-discuss] How to arrange for auto snapshots only once per month

[Harry Putnam]

I want to have snaopshots only once a month on certain filesystems.
I'm not finding enough information on time-slider to tell if it can be
done there, but the Solaris time-slider docs indicate it could be
done.

The location it tells you to make such a setting does not exist on
hipster.

The output of `pkg contents time-slider' does not show any kind of man
pages or other documentation.

Can someone steer me to to some indepth documentation or perhaps tell
me how it might be done.  Either using some aspect of time-slider or
by command line settings to the zfs-filesystem options.

I used the fix you posted to update qt5 as you mentioned and it worked
for me to.  Gui quite improved.

To answer one question you mentioned. Yes time slider is available on
the desktop.  The Timeslider is on the desktop upper right and works
by press right mouse while its on Timeslider

It then appears and has you sign in for root then shows the full gui.

What I notice is the graphical slider is so maladjusted as to be on
the point of useless.

The handle of slider on right side of Timeslider gui is the same size
as the track it is to slide on so nearly useless for navigating the
list of zfs fs. To get thru the full set of FS you have to use the top
tiny arrow and it is so slow as to make you insane pretty quickly.

Please tell me there is some other way to make zfs fs either
non-snapshot-able or add it to auto snapshot in timeslider. And do
this from the command line.  That issue is supposed to be the topic
this thread is addressing.

No chipset drivers for my Dell OptiPlex 390 MT

(full specs at link) either. Your symptoms sound familiar to the problems I
was having. Here's
 how I
got it up and running (twice, since I wound up having to clean reinstall
due to an SSD upgrade).

Hi from Quad Cities, IA BTW. Just up the road from you.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] HP Z240

[Robert Pasken]

I have an HP Z240 I'd like to install the curent Hipster on, however, I 
am having very little luck. The system is listed on the  community HCL 
in the "servers reported to work or certified with Solaris 11.x". When I 
start the install, the system reboots as soon as it tries to start X11. 
Using a vesa video driver brings the system up, but the install 
immediately drops a core as does gparted/parted. Running DDU shows that 
drivers for the Intel Sunrise Point C230 chip (SATA, USB3, thermal 
sensors) are missing. I do not find any reference to the Sunrise Point 
chip except a reference to the USB3 interface. The reference says that 
the driver for USB3 now works. The systems runs Linux/FreeBSD without 
problems.


A Dell precision 3420 with the same chip set fails in exact the same way

Does anyone have a clue as to how to get openindiana installed on this 
system
