Here's how I recovered my situation: 1. Boot from openSolaris CD 2. Import the pool 'zpool import' to list it 'zpool import -f ' This took quite some time. I guess it had to check/repair it, so I went to lunch. 3. Export the pool again 'zpool export ' 4. Reboot 5. Import the pool again.

I would suggest a CPU with small L2 cache, as L2 cache will not help a file server. This allows you use AMD's new 45W cpu. And 64 bit. 2-4 cores. And use raidz2. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opens

Hi all! I've decided to take the "big jump" and build a ZFS home filer (although it might also do "other work" like caching DNS, mail, usenet, bittorent and so forth). YAY!

Yesterday's integration of 6678033 resilver code should prefetch as part of changeset 74e8c05021f1 (which should be in build 129 when it comes out) may improve scrub times, particularly if you have a large number of small files and a large number of snapshots. I recently tested an early version
