Hi everyone, Recent ZFS admin guide updates/troubleshooting wiki include the following updates.
1. Revised root pool recovery steps. The process has been changed slightly due to a recently uncovered zfs receive problem. You can create a recursive root pool snapshot as was previously documented. In the revised process, you must send and receive individual root pool datasets from the recursive root pool snapshot. The revised Solaris 10 10/08 root pool recovery steps are here: http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Troubleshooting_Guide#ZFS_Root_Pool_Recovery The revised SXCE root pool recovery steps are in the ZFS Admin Guide, here: http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/docs/ 2. Enhanced disk label information. Added more disk labeling information or provided links to more info in the boot/install chapter and pools chapter in the ZFS Admin Guide, here: http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/docs/ On an x86 based system, I retested both an initial install of a ZFS root file system and also attached a disk to create a mirrored root pool and found no problems. 3. Added new text about the pax command's inability to translate NFSv4-style ACLs in the snapshots chapter in the ZFS Admin Guide, here: http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/docs/ I will push these versions to docs.sun.com as soon as is feasible.
