Hi, einar, That's fine with me as long as I can access OS ZFS partitionfrom Linux. The problem is that Linux is set over ReiserFS partition, so I can't do anything from OpenSolaris, unless there is some kind of tool in OpenSolaris for that. Also I was hoping that somehow it is possible to creat

Isn't it easier and faster with ext3/ntfs drivers from FSWpart / FSWfsmisc and get all the data this way? Anyway, from what I see, zfs-fuse 0.5.0 (which is releasead a year ago? they're not too keen on releases) supports v13 of zpool, yet default opensolaris pools are v14 already (and, IIRC v16 w

But on a Sol 10 Sparc box for example, you can see corrected ECC memory errors in the messages file (if any occur) so the OS at some level is aware of what is going on in the hardware. If x86 hardware does not provide this functionality then if you have a failing dimm you won't know about it unt

My understanding of ECC memory's error correction is that it happens at the hardware level. I don't think it makes a difference what OS you use, so long as you tell the system (BIOS/OpenFirmware) to use ECC. On Wed, Sep 2, 2009 at 10:12 AM, Jose Chung wrote: > I'd be interested in the answer to t
