 Hi everybody,

 I tested the following scenario:

 I have two machine attached to the same SAN LUN.
 Both machines run Solaris 10 Update 4.
 Machine A is active with zpool01 imported.
 Machine B is inactive.
 Machine A crashes.
 Machine B imports zpool01
 Machine A comes back

 Now the problem is, that when machine A comes back, it imports  
 zpool01 even if it belongs to machine B now.
 I've seen this problem some time ago in a blog, but don't remember  
 where. Will this be fixed ?

ek See:

ek The changes are already in OpenSolaris, and will make it in s10u5.

In a way he could workaround it today - manually imporot pool with -R
option. It means that everytime server reboots you will have to
manually import a pool but at least you won't endup with two hosts
with the same pool.

You could also write a script to import a pool with -R but without
forcr option. So during normal (clean) reboots a pool will be imported
automatically.

Or if you already have two servers in a SAN, just grab Sun Cluster 3.2
which is for free (if you don't need a support) and use it. Works with
no problems with zfs.
