Just to make sure we're looking at the same thing:

http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6761786

This is not an issue of auto snapshots. If I have a ZFS server that exports 300 zvols via iSCSI and I have daily snapshots retained for 14 days, that is a total of 4200 snapshots. According to the link/bug report above it will take roughly 5.5 hours to import my pool (even when the pool is operating perfectly fine and is not degraded or faulted).

This is obviously unacceptable to anyone in an HA environment. Hopefully someone close to the issue can clarify.

I think the value of auto-snapshotting zvols is debatable.  At least,
there are not many folks who need to do this.

What I'd rather see is a default property of 'auto-snapshot=off' for zvols.

Dave,

Its logged as an RFE (Request for Enhancement) not as a CR (bug).

The status is 3-Accepted/  P1  RFE

RFE's are generally looked at in a much different way then a CR.

Seriously?  It's considered "works as designed" for a system to take 5+
hours to boot?  Wow.
