Peter, Mike, Thank you very much, "zfs get -p" is exactly what I need (and why I didn't see it despite having been through the man page dozens of times I cannot fathom.) Much appreciated. Chris -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-dis

[zfs-discuss] Snapshot creation time

2009-08-28 Thread Chris Baker
I'm using "find" to run a directory scan to see which files have changed since the last snapshot was taken. Something like: zfs snapshot tank/filesys...@snap1 ... time passes ... find /tank/filesystem -newer /tank/filesystem/.zfs/snap1 -print Initially I assumed the time data on the .zfs/snap1 d

Hi Sanjeev OK - had a chance to do more testing over the weekend. Firstly some extra data: Moving the mirror to both drives on ICH10R ports and on sudden disk power-off the mirror faulted cleanly to the remaining drive no problem. Having a one drive pool on the ICH10R under heavy write traffic

I've left it hanging about 2 hours. I've also just learned that whatever the issue is it is also blocking an "init 5" shutdown. I was thinking about setting a watchdog with a forced reboot but that will get me nowhere if I need I reset button restart. Thanks for the advice re the LSI 1068, not

Sanjeev Thanks for taking an interest. Unfortunately I did have failmode=continue, but I have just destroyed/recreated and double confirmed and got exactly the same results. zpool status shows both drives mirror, ONLINE, no errors dmesg shows: SATA device detached at port 0 cfgadm shows: sa

Ok - in an attempt to weasel my way past the issue I mirrored my problematic si3124 drive to a second drive on the ICH10R, started writing to the file system and then killed the power to the si3124 removable drive. To my (unfortunate) surprise, the IO stream that was writing to the mirrored fil

It's a generic Sil3132 based PCIe x1 card using the si3124 driver. Prior to this I had been using Intel ICH10R with AHCI but I have found the Sil3132 actually hot plugs a little smoother than the Intel chipset. I have not gone back to recheck this specific problem on the ICH10R (though I can), I

[zfs-discuss] Recovering from ZFS command lock up after yanking a non-redundant drive?

2009-08-04 Thread Chris Baker
Hi I'm running an application which is using hot plug sata drives as giant removable usb keys but bigger and with SATA performance. I'm using “cfgadm connect” then “configure” then “zpool import” to bring a drive on-line and export / unconfigure / disconnect before unplugging. All works well.
