Hi,

Was wondering if anyone had experience working with VxVM volumes in a
zpool. We are using VxVM 5.0 on a Solaris 10 11/06 box. The volume is on a
SAN, with two FC HBAs connected to a fabric.

The setup works, but we observe a very strange message on bootup. The
bootup screen is attached at the bottom of this e-mail.

I suspect that the problem is that
svc:/system/vxvm/vxvm-sysboot:default needs to be online before
svc:/system/filesystem/local:default.  I bet that adding something
like the following to /var/svc/manifest/system/vxvm/vxvm-sysboot.xml:

       <dependent
           name='vxvm-sysboot_filesystem-local'
           grouping='optional_all'
           restart_on='none'>
               <service_fmri value='svc:/milestone/single-user' />
       </dependent>

You can then run:

 svccfg import /var/svc/manifest/system/vxvm/vxvm-sysboot.xml

On your next boot it should bring up (or try to...) vxconfigd (which
should make volumes available) before the first zfs commands are run.
I suspect that if /usr or /opt is a separate file system, you may have
issues with this dependency.

This is based upon 5 minutes of looking, not a careful read of all the
parts involved.
