I remember that! The 2.5" disks don't really count as low cost, but

I got overzealous with snapshot creation. Every 5 mins is a bad idea.
Way too many.
What's the easiest way to delete the empty ones?

Hi there,
Yes 5 minutes is too often.
I would, if it is easy and you have enough room, and don't want any of
the snapshots, create another temp zfs file system and copy your data
there and destroy the current zfs file system. Then recreate it and
copy the data back. I don't know if there is
I don't know if there's any easy way to delete them, but I can offer a
suggestion for the future.
Tim Foster has a ZFS automatic snapshot script that would be worth taking a
look at:

Hi ZFS gurus -- I have a v240 with solaris10 u2 release and ZFs - could you

S10U2 has zfs version=1. Any patches are just bug fixes (I'm not sure if
there are any). If your intention is to get to a newer, later, greater ZFS,
you'll need to upgrade. S10U5 has, for example, version=4. Differences in
the versions of zfs can be found at

I've run into an odd problem which I lovingly refer to as a "black hole
directory".
On a Thumper used for mail stores we've found find's take an exceptionally long
time to run. There are directories that have as many as 400,000 files, which I
immediately considered the culprit. However, und
