I'm not sure you're actually seeing the same problem there Richard. It seems
that for you I/O is stopping on removal of the device, whereas for me I/O
continues for some considerable time. You are also able to obtain a result
from "zpool status" whereas that completely hangs for me.

Hello all
I have weird problem with a snapshot... when I try to delete it kernel
panics. However I can successfully create and then delete other
snapshots on same file system. The OS version I noticed it happens was
snv_81 so I've upgraded to snv_94 (LU) but it doesn't help.
I've attached a
I have a Sun Blade 2500 running nv_88. I want to install nv_94 with a mirrored
zfs root filesystem. At the ok prompt, I entered boot cdrom -w so that I would
get the test installer and could select zfs as the root filesystem.
Unfortunately, I got the GUI installer and can not select a zfs root.
Hi Ron,
Try again by using this syntax:
ok boot cdrom - text
Make sure you have reviewed the ZFS boot/install chapter in the ZFS
admin guide, here:

There's not much that CIFS can do as far as user quotas go
without filesystem support. I've CC'ed zfs-discuss, somebody
there might be able to provide you something useful.

True we could have all the syslog data be directed towards the host but the
underlying issue remains the same with the performance hit. We have used nfs
shares for log hosts and mail hosts and we are looking towards using a zfs
based mail store with nfs moutnts from x mail servers but if nfs/zf

Thanks Cindy. My co-worker ( whom I mentor), told me the proper way. It is
boot cdrom - w, not cdrom -w. He's right. He should be mentoring me. I'll try
your way later, nv94 is loading now..

Hey folks,
I guess this is an odd question to be asking here, but I could do with some
feedback from anybody who's actually using ZFS in anger.
I'm about to go live with ZFS in our company on a new fileserver, but I have
some real concerns about whether I can really trust ZFS to keep my data al

Mark,
I filed two bugs for these issues but they are not visible in the
Opensolaris bug database yet:
6731639 More NFSv4 ACL changes for ls.1 (Nevada)
6731650 More NFSv4 ACL changes for acl.5 (Nevada)
The current ls.1 man page can be displayed on docs.sun.com, here:

Since all the other components can be the same (ram, cpu, hdd, case, etc) why
not to spend $30 more for this?

i must pose the question then:
is ECC required?
i am running non-ECC RAM right now on my machine (it's AMD and it would support
ECC, i'd just have to buy it online and wait for it)
but will it have any negative effects on ZFS integrity/checksumming if ECC RAM
is not used? obviously it's nice t

Hey Brent,
On the Sun hardware like the Thumper you do get a nice bright blue "ready to
remove" led as soon as you issue the "cfgadm -c unconfigure xxx" command. On
other hardware it takes a little more care, I'm labelling our drive bays up
*very* carefully to ensure we always remove the rig
