If you have a valid Solaris Support contract you can ask for the corresponding IDR to fix this issue.

I don’t know the answer to your question, but I am running the same version of OS you are, and this bug could affect us. Do you have any link to any documentation about this bug? I’d like to forward something to inform the other admins at work.

*Subject:* [zfs-discuss] Any way to fix ZFS "sparse file bug" #6792701

I have a Solaris x86 server running update 6 (Solaris 10 10/08 s10x_u6wos_07b X86). I recently hit this "sparse file bug" when I deleted a 512GB sparse file from a 1.2TB filesystem and the space was never freed up. What I am asking is would there be any way to recover the space in the filesystem without having to destroy and recreate it? I am assuming before trying anything I would need to update the server to U8.

Thanks in advance...
