Hi Peter,

The bugs are filed:

http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6430563

Your coworker might be able to workaround this by setting a 10GB quota on the ZFS file system.

A coworker of mine ran into a large ZFS-related bug the other day. He was 
trying to install Sun Studio 11 on a ZFS filesystem and it just kept on 
failing. Then he tried to install on a UFS filesystem on the same machine and 
it worked just fine...

After much headscratching and testing and trussing he finally found the reason.

pkgadd doesn't really handle filesystems with 5TB of free space (some statvfs() 
call fails when pkgadd tries to figure out if there is enough space available 
for the packages :-)

(Yeah yeah - I know... Not really ZFS's fault :-)
