I would suggest you run a zpool scrub. -----Original Message----- From: Jay Heyl [mailto:j...@frelled.us] Sent: Saturday, June 02, 2012 11:15 PM To: Discussion list for OpenIndiana Subject: [OpenIndiana-discuss] ZFS restore from snapshot
I have a file that shows as corrupted in the live file system and two snapshots. The file gives every indication of being valid in earlier snapshots. I've tried to restore it from the good snapshot but it doesn't seem to want to take. After several failed attempts to copy directly from the snapshot, I copied from the snapshot to my home directory. That copy appears to be good. (It's an image file and the image comes up fine.) I've deleted the file from the live directory and it seems to disappear. But every time I copy the file from my home directory into the target directory, the target directory copy appears corrupted. With most other file systems I'd suspect this indicates a problem with the directory rather than with the actual file, but I don't know enough about zfs to judge whether this makes sense or not. Any ideas what might be going on with this file and how I can get it restored from the good snapshot? The other odd thing, not directly related to getting it restored, is that neither the file nor the directory it's in has been purposely changed since the time of the good snapshot. Obviously something changed or there wouldn't be any difference between the live version and the snapshot, but I'm bewildered about how it might have happened. _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
