Ok, your procedure differs slightly from what I've done: zfs import -f rpool zfs set mountpoint=/a rpool/ROOT/opensolaris ls -l /a
Setting mountpoint AND explicitly mounting indeed gives the files back ! I didn't mount it explicitly after setting mountpoint to /a, since it used to be mounted automatically then, also mounted via 'mount -F zfs rpool/ROOT/opensolaris /a', but with setting mountpoint of opensolaris to legacy. Doesn't it automatically mount when mountpoint is set any longer ? Or is this behaviour a consequence of the mount failure on import when it tries to mount over / ? Thanks a lot for the hints, you saved my day ! -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
