Hi, I've got an OpenSolaris 2009.06 box that will reliably panic whenever I try to import one of my pools. What's the best practice for recovering (before I resort to nuking the pool and restoring from backup)?
There are two pools on the system: rpool and tank. The rpool seems to be fine, since I can boot from a 2009.06 CD and 'zpool import -f rpool'; I can also 'zfs scrub rpool', and it doesn't find any errors. Hooray! Except I don't care about rpool. :-( If I boot from hard disk, the system begins importing zfs pools; once it's imported everything I usually have enough time to log in before it panics. If I boot from CD and 'zfs import -f tank', it panics. I've just started a 'zdb -e tank' which I found on the intertubes here: http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=49020. Zdb seems to be ... doing something. Not sure _what_ it's doing, but it can't be making things worse for me right? I'm going to try adding the following to /etc/system, as mentioned here: http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=114906 set zfs:zfs_recover=1 set aok=1 Suggestions? _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
