Darren,
Thanks for the explanation. Would you object if I opened a bug on the zfs man
page to include what you've written here ?
Thanks again,
John

The man page for dumpadm says this:
A given ZFS volume cannot be configured for both the swap area and the dump
device.
And indeed when I try to use a zvol as both, I get:
zvol cannot be used as a swap device and a dump device
My question is, why not ?
Thanks,
John

I'm trying to get a feel on how to deal with a ZFS root filesystem when booted
off an alternate medium. For UFS, this simply meant finding the correct device
(slice on a disk) to mount and then mount it, assuming there wasn't some volume
manager in the way.
For ZFS, this is a little more comple
orce a panic? It is an x86 machine, with
only a serial console.

Can someone explain to me what the 'volinit' and 'volfini' options to zfs do ? It's not obvious from the source code and these
options are undocumented.
Thanks,
John
