Re: [zfs-discuss] Odd zpool create error

[Trevor Watson]

I don't suppose that it has anything to do with the flag being "wm" instead of "wu" on your second drive does it? Maybe if the driver thinks slice 2 is writeable, it treats it as a valid slice?

Ian,

It looks like the error message is wrong - slice 7 overlaps slice 4 -
note that slice 4 ends at c6404, but slice 7 starts at c6394.

Slice 6 is also completely contained within slice 4's range of
cylinders, but that won't matter unless you attempt to use it.

Bugger, I didn't spot that!  I'd better fix that before I use s4 for a
Live Upgrade!

I still get the same error message, one difference I see between the
drives is one (with the error) has

  2     backup    wu       0 - 38911      298.08GB    (38912/0/0) 625121280
  7 unassigned    wm    6394 - 38909      249.09GB    (32516/0/0) 522369540

and the other

  2     backup    wm       0 - 38909      298.07GB    (38910/0/0) 625089150
  7 unassigned    wm    6394 - 38909      249.09GB    (32516/0/0) 522369540

I get the error for any slice on this drive.

Cheers,

I have to drives with the same slices and I get an odd error if I try

bash-3.00# zpool create test c0d0s7       bash-3.00# zpool destroy test
bash-3.00# zpool create test c11d0s7
invalid vdev specification
use '-f' to override the following errors:
/dev/dsk/c11d0s7 overlaps with /dev/dsk/c11d0s2

I'd have thought that every slice overlaps s2!
