Hey,

"zfs destroy snapshotname" is the way I use to remove snapshots.

Kind regards,
Steve

Re: [zfs-discuss] Re: Making 'zfs destroy' safer

2007-05-21 Thread XIU

Actually, if your zfs filesystem has snapshots zfs will complain that the fs
can't be destroyed (or that you have to use the -f switch to force it). So
the first thing I do when making a new filesystem is create a snapshot to
protect me from destroying a filesystem :)

I never actually *had* a problem, I am just nervous about it. And yes, @
is not special for classical shells, but it's still more special than
alphanumerics or '/', and probably more likely to *be* special in some
languages/alternate shells.

Then there is the seemingly trivial issue of the physical keyboard
layout. The most common layout will tend to make you use the right shift
key in order to type the @, in a particular sequence such that a slight
slip of the finger there and *kaboom*, you have lost your (and/or
everybody else's) data by accidentally hitting enter instead of shift.

One can of course protect against this by writing commands backwards and
such, which is what I do for cases like this along with SQL DELETE
statements, but to me it just feels unnecessarily dangerous.

On the other than a very minor modification to the command line tool
gets you a pretty significant payoff without complicating things. It
will affect the safety of the out-of-the-box tool, regardless of the
local policy for privilege delegation.

Re: [zfs-discuss] Re: New zfs pr0n server :)))

2007-05-20 Thread XIU

About sata controllers, anyone tried
http://www.promise.com/product/product_detail_eng.asp?segment=Non-RAID%20HBAs&product_id=139#?
It sells here for like 90euro so would be a cheap way for me to add
some
extra harddrives for a personal zfs server.

Notice that I had to flash it to make it work like a regular "plain" ide

me only the logical raid created drive...

Re: [zfs-discuss] Clear corrupted data

Hey,

Using the steps on
http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=39450&tstart=0confirms
that it's the iso file.
Removing the file does work, I'll just download the file again and let a
scrub clean up the error message.

hey steve,

So you already figured out which file was corrupted by translating
the object number to an actual filepath?  and its the Ubuntu 7.04 iso
file?

Can you just remove the file or does that error out?

If you can upgrade your bits, then 'zpool status -v' will be more
informative:
http://blogs.sun.com/erickustarz/entry/damaged_files_and_zpool_status

From your output, just one block is corrupted (blkid 1919).

[zfs-discuss] Clear corrupted data

2007-05-15 Thread XIU

Hey,

I'm currently running on Nexenta alpha 6 and I have some corrupted data in a
pool.

The output from sudo zpool status -v data is:

 pool: data

 state: ONLINE
status: One or more devices has experienced an error resulting in data
corruption.  Applications may be affected.
action: Restore the file in question if possible.  Otherwise restore the
entire pool from backup.
   see: http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-8A
 scrub: none requested
config:

NAMESTATE READ WRITE CKSUM
dataONLINE   0 010
  c2d0  ONLINE   0 0 0
  c1d0  ONLINE   0 0 0
  c3d0  ONLINE   0 0 0
  c4d0  ONLINE   0 0 0
  c0d1  ONLINE   0 010

errors: The following persistent errors have been detected:

  DATASET  OBJECT  RANGE
  1c8  10a5lvl=0 blkid=1919



When accessing the file I'll get an I/O error, is it possible to clear the
error and overwrite the corrupted data with all zeroes? I don't know how
much data that is corrupted but it's from the Ubuntu 7.04 iso which is
downloaded with a torrent and my client hangs at 34% in checking it. If I
could just clear the corrupted data the client would pick it up and just
redownload that part.

Kind regards,
Steve
