A man walks into a large park. The wild lion park it is
# file /sbin/zfs
/sbin/zfs: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, dynamically
linked, not stripped
# ldd /sbin/zfs
libzfs.so.1 = /lib/libzfs.so.1
libuutil.so.1 = /lib/libuutil.so.1
libumem.so.1 = /lib/libumem.so.1
libc.so.1 = /lib/libc.so.1
You'll find many of the binaries under /usr/bin and /usr/sbin have only
32bit versions. That said most of the real work wrt zfs is done in the
kernel, which on SPARC platforms is 64 bit only.

Hello Dennis,
Thursday, January 19, 2006, 1:16:16 AM, you wrote:

Why do you think 64-bit version of /sbin/zfs would be needed?
