[zfs-discuss] Backup/Restore root pool : SPARC and x86/x64

I have been impressed to see my blade1500 booting ZFS for the first time. Even if the OBP does not boot EFI disk yet, we can already greatly simplify the everyday life of the sysadmin with this awaited feature. I was checking in the official Sun doc and on opensolaris doc and I didn't notice an

[zfs-discuss] Possible ZFS panic on Solaris 10 Update 6

The system was an x4540 running Solaris 10 Update 6 acting as a production Samba server. The only unusual activity was me sending and receiving incremental dumps to and from another system. When the system came back, the filesystem/local service was in maintenance and had to be manually restarted

[zfs-discuss] Rewrite vdev label?

I have a situation where the first part of the first label on the vdev is corrupted (from 8K to 16K on the slice). Can I use a zfs/zpool command to rewrite that label from one of the other three? So far I've tried zpool update zpool export zpool import Some zdb magic? __

Boyd, That's exactly what I was getting at. This list probably isn't the place to discuss but this is the first real instance aside of maybe xVM Ops Center where it was pretty much put out in the open that you can expect to pay to get the goods. Fishworks seems to have much more than just

Re: [zfs-discuss] Lost space in empty pool (no snapshots)

The "deferred free" indicates that these blocks are supposed to be freed at a future time. A quick glance at the code would seem to indicate that this is supposed to happen when the next transaction group is pushed. Apparently it's not happening on your system ... presumably a bug. -- This mess

We would be very interested in this. I have just gotten my thumpers (x4500) into preproduction testing as NFS NAS servers. Our real challenge has been lack of a management GUI so that long complex lists of commands do not need to be followed. I do not run my own apps on them, so I would be interes

Is it possible to install a GRUB that can boot a ZFS root, but installing it from within Linux? I was planning on getting a new unmanaged dedicated server, which however only comes with Linux preinstalled. The thing has a software RAID1, so the cunning plan was to break up the RAID1, install Vi

[zfs-discuss] Q. ZFS requires freespace in file system ?

Hi, i recently encountered a database crash on ZFS with MaxDB and Solaris 10. The reason was that the ZFS file system was 100% full (quota, reservation set and exceeded). Unfortunately using "df -k" and counting the bytes only 860GB out of 870GB were used for files. No hidden files, no ZFS snapsho
