Greetings!

Been using solaris (SXCE) as a home server for a few months now - works really 
well. However something weird came to my attention lately - I think not all the 
available disk space is actually made available in my system. The following 
command output will show what I mean:

bash-3.2# zpool status tank
  pool: tank
 state: ONLINE
status: The pool is formatted using an older on-disk format.  The pool can
        still be used, but some features are unavailable.
action: Upgrade the pool using 'zpool upgrade'.  Once this is done, the
        pool will no longer be accessible on older software versions.
 scrub: scrub in progress for 0h37m, 34.24% done, 1h12m to go
config:

        NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        tank        ONLINE       0     0     0
          raidz1    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c3d0    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c5d0    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c4d0    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c2d0    ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors
bash-3.2# zpool get all tank
NAME  PROPERTY     VALUE       SOURCE
tank  size         928G        -
tank  used         913G        -
tank  available    14.9G       -
tank  capacity     98%         -
tank  altroot      -           default
tank  health       ONLINE      -
tank  guid         870404936645583977  -
tank  version      10          local
tank  bootfs       -           default
tank  delegation   on          default
tank  autoreplace  off         default
tank  cachefile    -           default
tank  failmode     wait        default
bash-3.2# zfs get available tank
NAME  PROPERTY   VALUE  SOURCE
tank  available  349M   -
bash-3.2# 



Basically I have a 4 disk raidz1 setup with only a handful of filesystems and 
snapshots created - from zpool's output I was told that 14.9G is available but 
zfs(1) showed only 349M. I did try to file up the filesystem by copying more 
data onto it - seems number reported by zfs(1) is correct.

I do have plans to upgrade the pool but I'd like to make full backup of my 
files before I do. :-)

Any input is appreciated.
