I filed this RFE earlier, since there is no way for non sun personel to see this RFE for a while I am posting it here, and asking for feedback from the community.

Product: solaris Category: opensolaris Subcategory: triage-queue Type: RFE Subtype: Status: 1-Dispatched Substatus: Priority: 5-Very Low Introduced In Release: Introduced In Build: Responsible Manager: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Responsible Engineer: Initial Evaluator: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Keywords: opensolaris === *Description* ============================================================ Category kernel Sub-Category zfs Description Currently many people have been trying to import ZFS pools on multiple systems at once. currently this is unsupported, and causes massive data corruption to the pool. If ZFS refuses to import any zfs pool that was used in the last 5 minutes, that was not cleanly exported. This prevents the filesystem from being mounted on multiple systems at once. Frequency Always Regression No Steps to Reproduce import the same storage pool on more than one machine or domain. Expected Result #zpool import -f datapool1 Error: ZFS pool datapool1 is currently imported on another system, and was accessed less than 5 minutes ago, ZFS currently does not currently support concurrent access. If this filesystem is no longer in use on the other system please export the filesystem from the other system or try again in 5 minutes. Actual Result #zpool import -f datapool1 # a few minutes later the system crashes because of concurrent use.
