Absolutely not! Just be glad you never had to create a swap file on an
NFS mount just to be able to build software on your machine! Yes, I really
did have to do that.
Way to drag my post into the mud there.
Ever try adding a swapfile onto the same disk where there's already a swap
partition? At least in my experience this led really poor performance. Can we
just move on?

The swap -a not work so great on a single-disk system without a free partition.
Many times it was not quite so useful. This is really a nice suprise.

I can resize swap on a live system.
I shudder to think how many times in my sysadmin career I've had to resolve
insufficient swap issues the HARD WAY with downtime.
If I ever meet any ZFS devs your bar tab is covered.

Uwe,
Please see pages 55-80 of the ZFS Admin Guide, here:
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/docs/
Basically, the process is to upgrade from nv81 to nv90 by using the
standard upgrade feature. Then, use lucreate to migrate your UFS root
file system to a ZFS file system, like this:

Can someone in the know please provide a recipe to upgrade a nv81 (e.g.) to
ZFS-root, if possible?
That would be, just listing the commands step by step for the uninitiated; for
me.

As for the auto-enabling, I'm not sure, as IIRC, we do different things
based on disk technology.
eg: IDE + SATA - Always enabled
SCSI - Disabled by default, unless you give ZFS the whole disk.
I think.
On a couple of my systems, this seems to r

With the release of the Nevada build 90 binaries, it is now possible to install
SXCE directly onto a ZFS root filesystem, and also put ZFS swap onto a ZFS
filesystem without worrying about having it deadlock. ZFS now also supports
crash dumps!
To install SXCE to a ZFS root, simply use the text-
