I have s10u6 installed on my server.
zfs list (partly):
NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
rpool 88.8G 140G 27.5K /rpool
rpool/ROOT 20.0G 140G 18K /rpool/ROOT
rpool/ROOT/s10BE2 20.0G 140G 7.78G /
But just now, on a newly installed s10u6 system I got rpool/ROOT with a
mountpoint "legacy"
The mount point for /<rootpoolname>/ROOT is supposed
to be "legacy" because that dataset should never be mounted.
It's just a "container" dataset to group all the BEs.
The drives were different. On the latter (legacy) system it was not
formatted (yet) (in VirtualBox). On my server I switched from UFS to
ZFS, so I first created a rpool and than did a luupgrade into it.
This could explain the mountpoint /rpool/ROOT but WHY the difference?
Why can't s10u6 install the same mountpoint on the new disk?
The server runs very well; is this "legacy" thing really needed?
When you created the rpool, did you also explicitly create the rpool/ROOT
datasets? If you did create it and didn't set the mount point to
"legacy",
that explains why you ended up with your original configuration. If
you didn't create the rpool/ROOT dataset yourself, and instead let
LiveUpgrade
create it automatically, and LiveUpgrade set the mountpoint to
/rpool/ROOT, then
that's a bug in LiveUpgrade (though a minor one, I think).
NO, I'm quite positive all I did was "zfs create rpool" and after that I
did a "lucreate -n zfsBE -p rpool" followed by "luupgrade -u -n zfsBE -s
/iso"
So, it must have been LU that "forgot" to set the mountpoint to legacy.
yes, we verified that and filed a bug against LU.
What is the correct syntax to correct this situation?
I'm not sure you really need to, but you should be able
to do this:
zfs unmount rpool/ROOT
zfs set mountpoint=legacy rpool/ROOT
