When I looked for references on ARC freeing algo, I did find some lines
of codes talking about freeing ARC when memory is under pressure.
Nice...but what could be memory under pressure in the kernel syntax ?

Hi,
I wrote an hobbit script around lunmap/hbamap commands to monitor SAN health.
I'd like to add detail on what is being hosted by those luns.

With zfs, zpool status output is awful for script.
Is there somewhere an utility to show zpool informations in a scrip

Imports a specific pool. A pool can be identified by its
name or the numeric identifier. If newpool is specified,
the pool is imported using the name newpool. Oth
It's a really interesting question.
I used to have the issue on UFS, and the answer was "use VxVM or ZFS". Mmmm.
Does it really work on ZFS ?

Hi,
I'm currently doing some tests on a SF15K domain with Solaris 10
installed.
The target is to convince my cu to use Solaris 10 for this domain AND
establish a list of recommendations.
The ZFS perimeter is really an issue for me.
For now, I'm waiting for fresh

Why are you using distinct IP addresses instead of IPMP ?

Hi,
There's something really bizarre in ZFS snaphot specs : "Uses no separate
backing store." .
Hum...if I want to mutualize one physical volume somewhere in my SAN as THE
snaphots backing-store...it becomes impossible to do ! Really bad.
Is there any chance to have a "backing-store-fi

Oh no ! It means copy the whole filesystem. The target here is definitively to

Hum. ACLs are not so "exotic".

Something is unclear in "Solaris containers" and "Solaris ZFS" docs
