So the -proposed build is stocked on "Missing build dependencies: zfsutils-linux" for some arches.
I found no problem when testing with your PPA build, thanks. ** Description changed: libvirt is supposed to be able to create ZFS pool but I'm unable make use of it: 1) Create some free space to be used as the backing device - lvcreate -n libvirt-pool -L 8G vg0 - 2) Import a pool definition - virsh pool-define-as --type zfs --name zfspool --source-name libvirt-pool --source-dev /dev/vg0/libvirt-pool + lvcreate -n libvirt-pool -L 8G vg0 + 2) Create the zpool + zpool create libvirt-pool + 3) Import a pool definition + virsh pool-define-as --type zfs --name zfspool --source-name libvirt-pool The above command returns this: - error: Failed to define pool zfspool - error: internal error: missing backend for pool type 11 (zfs) + error: Failed to define pool zfspool + error: internal error: missing backend for pool type 11 (zfs) So unless I'm doing something wrong, it seems that the ZFS support is non-functional. P.S: Upstream ZFS support was added to 1.3.2 but this was cherry picked in Ubuntu's libvirt (1.3.1) as part of LP: #1553023 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: libvirt-bin 1.3.1-1ubuntu6 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-15.31-generic 4.4.6 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-15-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: zfs zunicode zcommon znvpair zavl ApportVersion: 2.20-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Thu Mar 24 09:41:02 2016 KernLog: - + SourcePackage: libvirt UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) modified.conffile..etc.libvirt.qemu.conf: [inaccessible: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf'] modified.conffile..etc.libvirt.qemu.networks.default.xml: [deleted] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1561553 Title: unable to create a ZFS pool To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1561553/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
