I was using OpenSolaris 2009.06 on an IDE drive, and decided to reinstall onto a mirror (smaller SSDs).
My data pool was a separate pool and before reinstalling onto the new SSDs I exported the data pool. After rebooting and installing OpenSolaris 2009.06 onto the first SSD I tried to import my data pool and saw the following message: # zpool import tank cannot import 'tank': pool is formatted using a newer ZFS version I then used Package Manager to do an "update all" to bring the OS upto the latest version, and so hopefully also the ZFS version, then I retried the import with the same result -- i.e. it won't import. Here's some additional info: SunOS zfsnas 5.11 snv_111b i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris # zpool upgrade -v This system is currently running ZFS pool version 14. The following versions are supported: VER DESCRIPTION --- -------------------------------------------------------- 1 Initial ZFS version 2 Ditto blocks (replicated metadata) 3 Hot spares and double parity RAID-Z 4 zpool history 5 Compression using the gzip algorithm 6 bootfs pool property 7 Separate intent log devices 8 Delegated administration 9 refquota and refreservation properties 10 Cache devices 11 Improved scrub performance 12 Snapshot properties 13 snapused property 14 passthrough-x aclinherit support For more information on a particular version, including supported releases, see: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/version/N Where 'N' is the version number. If the OS is at ZFS version 14, which I assume is the latest version, then my data pool presumably can't be using a newer version. So is there a bug, workaround or simple solution to this problem? If I could query the ZFS version of the unimported data pool that would be handy, but I suspect this is a bug anyway... Here's hoping for a quick reply as right now, I cannot access my data :((( Cheers, Simon http://breden.org.uk/2008/03/02/a-home-fileserver-using-zfs/ -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
