fstyp is the Solaris command to determine what type of file system may be present on a disk: # fstyp /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s6 zfs > When a device is shared between two machines [ ... ] You can use the same mount/unmount mechanism with ZFS, except that you will both need to unmount the file systems and export the pool. It's critical that you export the pool from machine A before trying to access it from machine B. > Can we create ZFS pools (or ZFS file system ) on VxVm volumes ? if so, how ? Yes. Just give the name of the VxVM volume to the 'zpool create' command, where the name of a disk would go. [Disclaimer: I haven't tested this.] > Can we share ZFS pools ( ZFS file system ) between two machines ? If you mean, can you have a pool simultaneously mounted on two machines, the answer is no. You must unmount/export the pool from one machine before allowing another machine to access it. > Like fsck command on Linux, is there any command to check the consistency of > the ZFS file system ?
