Hello Mark, Darren, Thank you guys for suggesting "zpool history", upon which we stumbled before receiving your comments. Nonetheless, the history results are posted above.
Still no luck trying to dig out the dataset data, so far. As I get it, there are no (recent) backups which is a poor practice, I know. However, considering the sheer volume of a single Thumper (which they also have), they'd need a not-so-small tape library to make a level-0 backup of one server. People kinda hoped the promise of Solaris being so Enterprise and friendly to users in cases anyhow related to data loss; they didn't expect a systems utility to make such destructive actions without even asking. Without even a flag to force it into asking. Besides, they expected (wrongly it seems) ZFS to be loss-resilient as touted on forums and blogs, and relied on snapshots to retrieve mis-deleted files, etc. Mixed technical expertise buffooned by marketing yells led to poor decisions ;( //Jim -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
