Some tips: - Try breaking your message into smaller sentences with full stops. - Do not try to use X, it's useless for you. Since you see the command line environment: zfs list | grep home Do you see /export/home/x as a separate entry ? rpool/export/home 10.7G 52.1G 10.6G /export/home rpool/export/h...@install 88.5K - 154K - That's what I see on my system - I have /export/home which belongs to the pool called rpool. I do not have a separate home directory for my user "sriram". That is, /export/home contains "sriram", "abcd", "demouser", etc. These are separate home directories, but they are folders and not individual file systems. Is that what you have ? Please reply, and hopefully, someone else will respond to your reply. It's 2:30 am in my time zone, and I'm going to sleep now. Keep those tips in mind ! -- Sriram _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
