[zfs-discuss] Can't remove corrupt file

2006-07-19 Thread Eric Lowe
I had a checksum error occur in a file. Since only one file is corrupt (and it's a link library at that) I don't want to blow away the whole pool to remove the corrupt file. However, I can't figure out any way to unlink the file. Using "rm" to try to unlink the file I get EIO: % rm llib-lip.ln

Did you write your /etc/system entry as follows? set zfs:txg_time=60 the txg_time parameter belongs to the zfs module, so you have to prefix the module name. Thanks, Zoram Thomas Maier-Komor wrote: I have tested it, and it is _much_ better now. Unfortunately adding "set txg_time = 60" in

I have tested it, and it is _much_ better now. Unfortunately adding "set txg_time = 60" in /etc/system does not set this value upon system startup. It only works using mdb at runtime. Do you have an idea, what might be wrong? Cheers, Tom This message posted from opensolaris.org _

We don't have a specific supported configuration method for usb devices for ZFS. Most people are using them as mirrors or backups for their laptop data. It's really up to you. There are a few threads from the discuss archives where people have discussed some different possible configs for
