I am building a system on a small x86 system by using Solaris 10 10/09. The
system disk is 1TB. As Solaris only take 6GB, I plan to allocate the rest to a
zpool for data. I want to keep system and data as separated as possible,
therefore I tried
a. Create a 10G Solaris partition for install sys
I understand that usually zfs need to be created inside a zpool to store
files/data.
However, I quick test shows that I actually can put files directly inside a
mounted zpool without creating any zfs.
After
zpool create -f tank c0d1
I actually can copy/delete any files into /tank. I can also c
1. Due to the COW nature of zfs, files on zfs are more tender to be fragmented
comparing to traditional file system. Is this statement correct?
2. If so, common understanding is that fragmentation cause perform degradation,
will zfs or to what extend zfs performance is affected by the fragmentat
I'm no expert but I think you need to export a zfs volume before you
remove it or it'll complain when you try to import it on another
system.
"zfs admin guide pg. 89"
zfs export poolName
You can do a zfs -f import to import it anyway.

bootwu 0 - 07.84MB(1/0/0) 16065

It seems like the partition 0,2,8 are sharing the same part of the
disk. How is this possible?

Thoughts?

Hi,
How do I discover the disk name to use for zfs commands such as:
c3d0s0? I tried using format command but it only gave me the first 4
letters: c3d1. Also why do some command accept only 4 letter disk
names and others require 6 letters?
Thanks

It's a 2GB filessystem just for test.
I wait about half an hour yesterday, but it import successful with only 20s
when i re-tried today.
Meanwhile, zfs didn't find any disk issue. (by the demo it should)
