Makes sense. I hadn't actually noticed this.
It is not only sharing to Linux machines but also using SFTP as well from
outside, so I need things to be pretty much multi-functional and flexible.
I don't ha
The long ls command worked, as in it created the links, but they didn't work
properly under the ZFS SMB share.
They didn't work as in, on a remote Linux box, I could execute ls and see them,
but I couldn't change in; permission issues. (despite having the correct
ownership) and also on the remo

Why would this work...
cd /mirror/audio/Cd-Tracks/0-entirelist
ln -s ../a/* .
...but this fail ...
ln -s /mirror/audio/Cd-Tracks/a/* /mirror/audio/Cd-Tracks/0-entirelist/.
Any ideas?

Hmmm ... no, it didn't.
I think it might be the sheer number of symlinks I've got in the directory.
That might be causing problems with the ZFS smb share.

Beautiful! It worked.
I can't work out why the symlinks failed to show up in the share when I did it,
but this way they are showing up fine.
Thank you very much!!!

... and now I've discovered that cp -L doesn't create symlinks.
Back to the drawing board.

Well,
This is the overall issue.
I have a music collection. The top level folders contain a letter for each
artist and each letter then contains a separate folder for each artist. Nice
and easy to organise and navigate.
A - ACDC
- Alanis Morisett
B - BeeGees
However ... I wanted to create
Got it - I used cp -L -R to symlnk copy the whole structure instead.
Messy, but it does the job.
Thanks for all the advice! Much appreciated.

published zfs smb share.

Hi Folks,
I seem to have a problem changing the owner of a symlinked directory.
As root...
mkdir a
chown admin:audiogroup a
ln -s a b
Directory "b" show
Perhaps an expert could kindly chime in an opinion of making the drives one
large zpool (rather than separate hard partitions) and using the various
options within ZFS to ensure that there is always disk space available to the
operating system (zpool reservation) ... but the more I sit and think
Correct that ... I have seen a bad batch of drives fail in close succession;
down to a manufacturing problem.

Hi whitetr6,
An interesting situation to which there is no, "right," answer. In fact, many
different answers depending on where you put your priorities.
I'm with Frank in keeping data and OS separate. As you've only got two drives,
I'd put between 30 to 40 gig as an OS pool on each drive (makin
I did notice the findroot command, but I don't know what I'm doing when it
comes to Grub.
The video is up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpzsSptzmyA - just me droning on
for ten minutes and it is aimed at people following me, so I do a lot of
explaining the basics.
I have to agree with a previ
Another question ...
I did this as a test because I am aware that zpools don't like drives switching
controlers without being exported first. The question was, what would a rpool
boot drive do if it was put on a different controller and then booted?
I shut down, took away c7 and hooked c19 up t
Well blow me down with a feather ... it worked
Many thanks folks. I'm going to make a little video about this process on You
Tube and hope it helps someone else.

Hi Cindy,
Won't I have a problem putting the grub in slice 0 when it is also allocated to
the zpool? Or do the two co-exist?
I've been trying to shift the boot partition from slice 8 to slice 0, and then
make slice 1 the hog, but I just can't get to grips with the partition command
in order to
Well, I nearly got there. I used -f to force the overwrite and then installed
grub to slice 8 (which seemed to have the boot) but when I boot from the larger
hard disk I get ...

I have to admit that fmthard does appear to be a bit of a sledgehammer in this
case. I thought I was doing wrong with that, but you've confirmed that now.

Hi Folks,
As usual, trust me to come up with the unusual. I'm planning ahead for future
expansion and running tests.
Unfortunately until 2010-2 comes out I'm stuck with 111b (no way to upgrade to
anything than 130, which gives me problems)
Anyway, here is the situation.

Fair enough.
So where do you think my problem lies?
Do you think it could be a limitation of the driver I loaded to read the ext3
partition?

Aplogies for not explaining myself correctly, I'm copying from ext3 on to ZFS -
it appears to my amateur eyes, that it is ZFS that is having the problem.
