Re: [zfs-discuss] pkg image-update to snv 121 -> shouldn't ZFS version be upgraded on /rpool
Thanks for all the answers, I've now cleared out the old BEs and upgraded the pools and everything just works as expected. /Per -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Most definitely not. Upgrading the pool could actually mean you can't boot back into your older BE. And is it safe to do an upgrade ? That depends. 1) Do you actually need to use the features (you get the bug fixes regardless) of the newer pool version 2) You have no older BE's left that you may wish to boot into that don't support the pool version you will be running if you do the upgrade. -- Darren J Moffat ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

No. The 'issue' here is that if you find that the new boot environment does not work for you for whatever reason you will need to revert to the previous environment. However if you have upgraded the pool then this will not be possible as the older version of the software will have no knowledge about the new version. And is it safe to do an upgrade ? As long as you are happy with the new environment. Thanks pete /Per ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

No, that would make your other BEs unbootable. This should really be "automatic"; there needs to be a way where some utility can determine what the minimal ZFS version is.
