I might've misunderstood your point. By "upgrading rpool drive", did you mean upgrading rpool version? If yes, this doesn't make sense since you use the same version for dom0 and domU, and by default you'll get newest version available during install time. If you mean "increase the size of rpool", the steps on a normal machine should work. Something like http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Troubleshooting_Guide#ZFS_Root_Pool_Recovery The biggest difference is getting to boot from CD, where you probably need to have a special domU config file (which is what I did) or just repeat the steps you did when installing domU (I assume it can get you a root console booting from CD/ISO image). Now since you said you tried attaching a mirror and removing the original, you could probably get it to work by assigning the mirror to domU as the original drive (xvda), boot domU from CD, import the pool, export it, shutdown, and then boot domU normally. Since it's domU, if all you need is increase the rpool disk size, there's probably a much simpler method. Extend the disk backing store (like by resising the zvol). The hard part then is adjusting the partition and slice (which I haven't personally tried) so that zfs will recognize the new disk size. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ xen-discuss mailing list [email protected]
